Klaus Dahl Tindborg

Co-owner and Partner at EmpowerMind International ApS

I started my professional career in the Danish Army, where I served as an Army Officer for 15 years. This step in my career gave me a thorough insight and experience in leadership and logistics. The next stint of my career was in A.P. Moller - Maersk, where my close to 17 years was a more or less 50/50 split between HR and Logistics. I was the CEO of Maersk Logistics (now Damco) in the Middel East for 7 years and the rest og my APMM time was focused around strategy and HR functions. Resigned from a position as Head of HR in Maersk Supply Services and APMM HR Board member in 2015. I am now co-owner and partner in EmpowerMind and spending all my time coaching individuals and teams, as well as educating coaches and teamcoaches.

Partner and consultant at Intenz P/S

Since 2001 I have helped companies implement their strategy by developing their culture, leadership and sales. I coach and mentor on C-level, develop management groups and train leaders and sales people. My passion lies in creating results together with our customers. I am very ambitious on behalf of our customers and it is definitive for me that the work we do is contributing to a positive development of the customer’s business. I challenge the customer’s attitude and perception with the purpose of changing their perspective and behaviour – but always in an acknowledging and respectful way. I am driven by a deeply anchored belief that organisations and people can be changed for the better – no matter how successful one is today. My colleagues, customers and collaboration partners see me as one who is transmitting my positive energy on to them on an everyday basis.
