We chose Ordo to conduct a two-day module in Aalborg and Copenhagen, focusing on conveying our values to customer-facing employees, and ensuring our customers feel connected to a sustainable financial institution. Niels instantly grasped our needs and values, which was pivotal for us. The course was characterized by profound psychological comfort, thanks to Niels’ calm and pleasant approach. Post-course, he engaged in individual discussions with employees, making them feel seen, heard, and equipped to move forward.
