Skagen Asia Pacfic HQ is ready to rock the boat

While we have seen the first results of our supply chain/sourcing/procurement strategy, the commercial ambitions of the Asia Pacific HQ is ready to set it's footprint on the region.

About Me

Name: Steen Albrechtslund

Location: Hong Kong, Hong Kong

I'm danish, but I wonder when I will be back in Denmark..if ever. But as Mark Twain put it: "is hard to predict...especially about the future". Otherwise I live by the philosophy of Confucius: "I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand". You can spend your whole life wondering how it would be...and one day...it's too late. My appetite for experiences is my growth engine. I have made numerous mistakes (!!) but I hope I have learned a lot in the process. I will probably continue to make mistakes and try out stuff. To me it's OK to make mistakes - just not the same one twice. Individuals who knows everything without the slightest doubt of their own capabilities scares the hell out of me and they are - in fact - making me quite suspicious. It's the doubt and curiosity that keeps us on the edge and evolving.Put yourself on the line - you will grow from the experience. Good or bad. Business wise I go with: create the box and then start to think out of it - not vise versa. Always balance day2day business with development. If you are not balancing it will be like the surgeon performing the same operation again and again without finding a cure.
