Birgitta was a consultant in Internal Communication in GEA Group under my direct supervision for two years as part of the team developing internal communication for 17,000 employees globally. On the editorial side, Birgitta produced articles and news for the intranet and was involved in launching and writing a new employee magazine. Based on her strong linguistic skills, Birgitta drafted a language guide for the company. She also started up a project with the University of Copenhagen on working in remote teams, and a project on how to reach non-wired employees globally.

We particularly benefitted from Birgitta’s competences in change communication. She delivered communication strategies and operational input for integration processes on mergers & acquisitions, and provided change communication on a large rollout of SAP for ERP. After being part of the Internal Communication department, Birgitta has spent a year working as a change communication consultant on three large projects in GEA; a global rollout of a SAP-based CRM solution, IT harmonization in GEA globally (going from decentralized to global systems), and the rollout of global travel expense management program, the SAP-based Concur.

Throughout her time in GEA, Birgitta has approached her tasks with enthusiasm and intellectual curiosity and has made it a point to engage others and share knowledge. Birgitta has a strong ability to interact with people from all areas of a large, complex and international organization and to form relations. I can warmly recommend Birgitta for internal and change communication.

Birgitta was communication manager in the change management team that I head, rolling out a CRM – SAP C4C – platform in GEA Group.

Birgitta was responsible for all topics related to communication, such as branding the project in the organization, writing articles and news on milestones, developing an intranet area for the project, presentations, registration information and contact with stakeholders such as hub communicators, providing them with communication packages.

Birgitta added high value to the project, ensuring user acceptance in the CRM implementation with her focus on putting herself in the shoes of the users. Her strong writing skills get the right messages across in a clear and understandable way and create employee engagement.

Working together with Birgitta was an outstanding experience, as she combines empathy, spirit and excellent communication skills.

Birgitta leverer varen! Hun har skrevet og læst korrektur på det meste af mit undervisningsmateriale på dansk, og oversat det til engelsk. Birgitta har formået at forstå mine mundtlige budskaber, og fået dem ned på papir. Hun er effektiv, systematisk og grundig. Birgitta har samtidig en rigtig god pædagogisk feedback-vinkel, hvis du selv ønsker at blive en dygtigere skribent. Uanset hvor dygtig du er, kan hun altid lære dig noget nyt om dit sprog både på dansk og engelsk.

Birgitta and I worked together in a European context where she was part of a round table discussing the implications for business of an EU research project on multilingualism. This round table was part of a larger conference held in Brussels. Birgitta’s approach to the task assigned to her was highly professional, ensuring good coordination with me and the overall project management. Her contribution was to the point, well-structured, perfectly-timed and excellently delivered. It was by far the best contribution of the round table, which consisted of business people from other European countries. I was also impressed by her multilingual and intercultural skills, where she was quite at home dealing with people from all over Europe.

Det har været meget værdifuldt at have ens rammer for hele virksomheden, så vores ydelsers kvalitet afspejles i vores sprogpolitik. Birgitta har også afholdt vellykkede interne kurser i godt sprogbrug for at sikre forankring på tværs af organisationen. Derudover er hun en herlig, varm kollega, der holder humøret højt.

I had the pleasure of working with Birgitta in COWI, where we were employed in the same job functions in different business units. Birgitta’s strong points are her ability to write clearly and concisely regardless of how complicated the topic might be. She is an excellent text editor and communicator. In COWI’s language network she carried out various activities to promote and maintain language guidelines. I can highly recommend Birgitta as a highly skilled employee and a great colleague.
