Talent

The ability to attract, develop and maintain the right talent for your organisation is a crucial leadership skill. Organisations thrive and grow when the right people are working for them and organisations perish when they cannot secure access to the right skills at the right time. At the same time, the labour market has struggled in recent years to provide the right number of employees with the right qualifications, which has intensified what has been framed as the “war for talent”.

Organisations have invested heavily in talent programmes, and yet, for some, the results have not materialised. There are many possible reasons. Unclear roles and responsibilities can confuse and diminish organisational buy-in to talent frameworks. Lack of transparency in what are considered to

be the components of talent can cause inconsistency and prevent talent mobility. Unclear expectation management can leave talents frustrated.I If not managed well, the talent approach can fail to secure engagement and growth, and result in the opposite instead.

”I hired Mads as an executive coach to support one of the leaders in my area. The topic was well-being of the entire department and involved individual diagnostics with key team members as well as coaching of the department head. Mads was the perfect fit for the job because of his ability to build strong rapport and trust very fast, his structured approach and wealth of tried-and-tested interventions.”

Jette SingletonChief People Officer

“ICMA has had the pleasure of working with Mads a number of times over the past few years as a panelist and guest speaker, for events both catered to the Nordic region, and to the global ICMA community. In each instance, Mads has provided highly relevant insights and advice that applies at all stages of a career for those who wish to distinguish themselves and find opportunities in today’s rapidly changing business environment. Mads has certainly provided a valuable contribution to the discussions based on his perspective as a career advisor/coach.”

Rebekah BrayVice-Chair of the ICMA Future Leaders Committee

“Mads comes highly recommended as a facilitator of learning and change in groups and with individuals. His trustworthy character makes it easy for him to connect with individuals and audiences of all kinds. Always with an eye on his specific client, Mads uses his vast background in corporate businesses to connect with the person in front of him, as well as their business context, to create a meaningful development and delivery for his clients.”

Jesper MadsenFounder of gHRow

“Mads helped us kickstart the process of defining talent in our organisation. In a complex matrix organisation with many different stakeholders and cultures across agencies, it was a difficult task. Mads quickly became acquainted with our structure and understood the challenges and strengths of our organisation; he helped us get an overview of the overall theory of talent and came up with a proposal for how we could begin the process. Mads showed up well prepared and presented his ideas with a natural authority and an understated humour. I am sure that I soon will reach out to Mads again.”

Karen Lundby NordenboHR Business Partner

“We are privileged to have Mads as a Mind at Work associate, delivering our programmes and coaching both groups and individuals with an unusual blend of organisational experience and expertise in human transformation. Mads guides individuals sensitively, humorously and wisely to uncover the limitations that hold them back whilst also providing the challenge and the encouragement to move into new possibilities. He is also a talented facilitator, leading transformational conversations which foster partnership and collaboration between people and teams so that remarkable results are created whilst developing exceptional teamwork. In addition, Mads has the knowledge and skill to unleash the power of purpose and meaning for people and organisations, helping to generate purposeful leadership and businesses. He is trustworthy, engaging, talented and will go the extra mile every time, and a rare find of a human being, coach and facilitator.”

Pascale AscherDirector at The Mind at Work

“Mads has been very supportive in our process of redesigning our approach to talent management. He has profound knowledge within HR and knows the dilemmas and pitfalls both conceptually and hands-on. I highly recommend Mads as coach and consultant.”

Tobias Dam HedeSenior Leadership Development Expert, Novozymes

"Working with Mads is like having a safety net. I feel very much at ease sharing with him my personal views, feelings and thought processes around the area of my coaching needs. Working in a high-paced senior leadership role in an international company, I need space to detach myself from the everyday pressure. Mads creates space where I can step back and take a different perspective on my challenges. He helps me process my inner world by asking questions that support me in finding my own answers to the questions I have. I know I can turn to him anytime. That gives me a great sense of comfort, knowing that I don’t need to try and figure things out by myself."
