Me and my Nion colleagues at Lake Maggiore in Italy, October 6, 2024.
This Sunday, April 19, 2026, marks my last day at Nion, and I wanted to take a moment to say a proper thank you.
When I joined One Agency in 2018, I couldn’t have predicted half of what was ahead: a global pandemic, Russia’s genocidal war in Ukraine, the merger with Nion, and the rise of AI. Most of my One Agency colleagues who were there when I joined are now gone; though I remain a shareholder, my journey as an employee ends here.
Coming from both a product and technical background, I had already worked for 15 years in several European countries before joining. At Nion, I worked for three different clients over the last eight years: Sony, Skatteverket, and Trygg-Hansa, building relationships and teams, and delivering work that I’m glad was well received. It meant a lot to have their trust and the flexibility that came with it.
My career path grew from my past development roles into Scrum Master, servant leader, and Team Coach roles I’d set my sights on long before joining. Over a quarter of a century, I’ve taken my career from code to lean-agile ways of working—a journey shaped by curiosity, change, and the people and distributed teams who made it all worthwhile.
I’m grateful for our time and opportunities together.
Now I’m off to see what comes next. I’m excited about how roles such as Product Owner, Delivery Lead, Agile Team Leader, Team Coach, and Scrum Master will transform due to AI and distributed ways of working. I believe the human side of the work—collaboration, cultural understanding, psychological safety, trust, coaching leadership, and product thinking—will matter more than ever. That’s what sustainable value delivery is built on (alongside technical excellence, of course).
Good luck in chasing the next bottleneck! I’d love to keep the conversation going on LinkedIn.
