< MEET OUR TEAM 6/12: Lenka Prokopec Karlberg > In our 'Meet Our Team' series, we introduce you to the people who make Mitt Liv’s mission possible! Each week, we’ll feature one of our amazing colleagues, from Mitt Liv’s beginnings to today. This week, meet our fantastic CEO, Lenka, who has been with Mitt Liv since 2019! 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗘𝗜 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆? I want to do all that I can to contribute to a more open and fair labour market where everyone feels included and can bring their skills to the table, no matter their background, skin colour, or language barriers. To build a resilient, innovative, and future-proof labour market, I truly believe we need to stop the huge brain waste that’s happening today. Being born in Prague and moving to Sweden when I was six, I saw firsthand how my parents struggled in different ways, often not being treated the same as native Swedes. I can’t even count how many times my mother has asked me to make phone calls on her behalf, just to make sure her accent wouldn’t be a disadvantage. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸? I really enjoy working with and learning from our amazing partners, clients, CEOs, mentees, and mentors - following the progress and the positive impact that grows within the Mitt Liv ecosystem over the years. I learn something new every day, and I’m proud that we’re moving the needle in the right direction. Every single time one of our mentees lands a job at their level of competence, it’s special and worth celebrating. Seeing someone thrive because of the support and opportunities we provide is incredibly fulfilling. And last but definitely not least, I’m grateful to be part of our fantastic and diverse team. We have so much collective intelligence and competence that we can tap into to create magic. Plus, we have fun and share a lot of laughs every day, which I personally think is so important. 🏇 𝗔 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂: I absolutely love being around horses - it’s a very important part of my life and keeps me grounded. It helps me clear my mind and stay present. I’m also a trained riding instructor, and sometimes I get the chance to step in and teach at my local riding school, which is something I really enjoy! #MittLiv #DEI #Inclusion #Equity

< MEET OUR TEAM 5/12: Cecilia Öhrner > In our 'Meet Our Team' series, we introduce you to the people who make Mitt Liv’s mission possible! Each week, we’ll feature one of our amazing colleagues, from Mitt Liv’s beginnings to today. This week, meet Cecilia - our Communications Manager! 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹? I’m responsible for communication and marketing for our consulting services and mentoring program, operationally and strategically. My work spans a wide range of tasks, including managing social media, press releases, newsletters, our website, videos, podcast, and so on! I oversee recruitment of mentees and mentors for the mentoring program, the creation of our impact report, and more. I collaborate closely with our sales team on sales activities and materials, and also coordinate parts of our communication within our network of partners. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗶𝘁𝘁 𝗟𝗶𝘃? Five eventful years! It’s incredible to see how much has happened over these years, both in the perception of DEI and in how Mitt Liv and our impact have developed. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗘𝗜 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆? Equity is vital to me - ensuring equal treatment, access, and opportunities for everyone. Too often, unnecessary barriers in society and organisations prevent certain groups from fully participating and contributing their skills. Growing up in a relatively homogenous environment in Sweden, then living abroad and working in international contexts, also sparked my interest in cultural awareness and the importance of questioning our perspectives and mental mechanisms. Recognizing and challenging our biases, prejudices, and norms is something we can all do to create more inclusive spaces around us! 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸? What I most enjoy is that Mitt Liv removes barriers that positively impact people’s lives and well-being. Whether it’s supporting someone secure the right job through our mentoring program or seeing a CEO or leader take action to transform organizational processes through DEI, being part of those journeys is incredibly rewarding. I love when I get to share these stories in different ways, hopefully inspiring others and drive further change. 🖋️ 𝗔 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂: I love writing - maybe not so surprising considering my profession - but I really like writing poems and have notebooks full of them! #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #Belonging #Equality #DEI #DEIB #MittLiv #MittLivsChans #MittLivAB #MittLivConsulting

< MEET OUR TEAM 4/12: Siyana Sokolova > In our 'Meet Our Team' series, we introduce you to the people who make Mitt Liv’s mission possible! Each week, we’ll feature one of our amazing colleagues, from Mitt Liv’s beginnings to today. This week, meet Siyana - Project Manager for Competence Provision! 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹? I lead initiatives to address skills gaps and enhance organizational capabilities through strategic competence development. I work closely with clients and recruitment services to tailor solutions that meet their specific needs, while also managing key aspects of the mentoring program to ensure its success. Additionally, I drive product development, refining recruitment programs to keep pace with industry requirements. My role involves continuous collaboration with stakeholders and fostering innovation to deliver impactful results. Being part of Mitt Liv’s team, I’m passionate about fostering growth, enhancing opportunities, and contributing to our shared mission of making a positive difference. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗶𝘁𝘁 𝗟𝗶𝘃? For just over 9 years. It’s been an incredible journey, seeing the tangible difference we make in people’s lives. I’ve witnessed firsthand how our work creates real opportunities for individuals with foreign backgrounds, and being part of that change is something I’m truly proud of. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗘𝗜 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆? Inclusion is where my heart truly lies within DEI. I’ve always believed that it’s not enough to just have diversity on paper—we need to create spaces where everyone feels genuinely included and valued. For me, inclusion is about ensuring that every voice, regardless of background, has a seat at the table and is empowered to contribute. This belief drives my work every day, knowing that when people feel included, they can bring their full selves to work and thrive. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸? What I love most about my work is the connections I make with people from diverse backgrounds. There’s something incredibly special about seeing a mentee grow in confidence and start to realize their potential in the Swedish job market. That moment when someone tells you they’ve landed their dream job or finally feel at home in their new environment - it’s those moments that make everything worth it. The sense of making a meaningful difference in someone’s life is incredibly rewarding and keeps me motivated. 📸 𝗔 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂: I’m an amateur photographer! I love capturing candid moments during my travels, and some of my photos have been featured in a few local exhibitions in my home country, Bulgaria. It’s a hobby that allows me to see the world from different perspectives, which I think also enhances my approach to work in diversity and inclusion. Bonus fun fact: I’m a lefty!
