About Worktrotter

Dagmar Fink

Photo of Dagmar FinkIn 2006 I moved to my fifth home - Denmark. The other countries in the collection: Germany, Romania, Sweden, USA. Since 2009 I am travelling between Germany and Denmark. My heritage and upbringing is multi-cultural: my ancestors come from Luxembourg, I am German, born in Romania and I grew up tri-lingual.
Everywhere I lived, I wanted to be part of the country, meet people, have fun, and make most out of my stay. Educated as a software engineer, I worked for Mercedes Benz, IBM Germany, IBM Denmark as business, product, people and project manager.

The Worktrotter's Guide to DenmarkBusiness-Dances with Danes. Decoding Danish work culture

Since my move to Denmark I started the Worktrotter-network, have published The Worktrotter's guide to Denmark and the book Business-Dances with Danes. Decoding Danish workplace culture and am holding inspiring presentations about living and working in Denmark. My focus is on sharing information (life is too short to re-inventing the wheel) and finding ways on improving the status quo. I have a deep believe in joining forces as we can do so much more together than if each of us is doing their own little thing.
