From Fiction to Enterprise Performance Management: A New Chapter Begins 📚➡️📊

So, what's the latest in my world of writing? Well, it’s a bit of a plot twist… As many of you know, my career has always been rooted in performance. Whether it’s simulating the future of wind farms 🌬️, optimizing CAPEX-heavy portfolios 💰, or leading high-performing teams in offshore oil and gas operations ⛽, performance has been at the core of my journey.

But here’s the thing—I've always been driven by a deeper desire to understand what truly moves the needle and then share that knowledge with others. That’s where my love for writing comes in. 📚 Over the years, I’ve wondered how I could blend my passion for storytelling with my professional expertise in performance. And that’s how Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) was born.

What makes my EPM more approachable, in my view, is two-fold. First, I’ve developed a fixed reference point—a framework that helps bring clarity to what often seems like complex concepts. Second, I contextualize it with my hobbies and interests, from retro gaming 🎮, 80s movies 🎥, and fantasy 🏰 to sci-fi 🌌. By connecting these passions to EPM, I aim to make it more relatable and easier to grasp.

While EPM has existed long before I came along, I like to think I’ve found a way to make it more relatable and accessible. 🤓 So, over the next little while, I’ll be focusing on sharing this story, primarily on LinkedIn 📲. Make sure to follow me there for insights into how performance can shape industries in unexpected ways!

And don’t worry, I’m still writing fiction! ✨ While my focus has shifted a bit, my love for storytelling remains. Stay tuned for more fictional adventures too!

🎉 Free Fantasy Book Giveaway! Dive into Polar: The Ice Dragon’s Curse 📚 #FreeBook #Fantasy

On a cold winter's night a few years ago, biking home after an evening of Drakar och Demoner (the Swedish D&D), two weather-beaten dwarves appeared in my mind, sitting by a fire, their knuckles cracking louder than the burning logs. What dreams danced in their minds? What paths lay ahead? Why did they hate elves so much? This quest ignited the tale of Polar: The Ice Dragon’s Curse.

A few weeks ago, I unveiled the second book in the Polar duology. To celebrate, I'm offering the first book for free on Amazon. If you crave fast-paced dark fantasy, dive in. If it enchants you, continue the journey with the second book, Polar: Dressed in Dragonscales. And should you ever find yourself lost in a cold world, seek out someone to love, and that spark will warm your soul.

Embrace the Art of Writing: Unleash Your Creativity

To write is to live, and to live is to write. ✍️ I can't imagine a life without writing. It doesn't have to be perfect, but it has to make you feel something. 💖 A friend of mine once said, "The sky seems a little bit higher from here," and to me, that captures the essence of writing beautifully. 🌅 When you write your story, you are the decider, and your creativity knows no bounds. 🌟 As your story grows, your control over it morphs into a character-driven arc where you're still in the front seat, but not necessarily behind the wheel. 🚗 Give it a try. Why not start with a classic story starter like:

  • "I will never forget when..." 📚

  • "It all began on a rainy night..." 🌧️

  • "In the heart of the city, there was a secret..." 🏙️

  • "Once upon a time, in a land far away..." 🏰

  • "She had always known there was something special about that day..." 🌟

  • "They never expected what would happen next..." 😲

Happy writing! ✨
