- “Sometimes in life, all you need is a gentle push out of the door to see where the world takes you.”
- Hi, I’m Anders Liu-Lindberg, a Former Finance Leader from Denmark and now the co-founder and CMO at Business Partnering Institute.
- At 22, I started my Finance career at Maersk and by 25, I grew to a Business Controller and later got expatriated to Maersk Drilling USA Inc where I held the role of Finance Manager!
- In retrospect, the reason for my quick growth was having a ‘career plan’ and most of all a ‘business partnering mindset’.
- After almost 13 years at Maersk, I said goodbye to a stable high-income job at a large company to help finance and FP&A leaders adopt a ‘business partner mindset’.
- Here is my story of how I went from a Senior Finance professional to an Entrepreneur helping finance professionals be better business partners!
I figured finance was my true calling!
Growing up I never had a full-fledged career plan but somehow, I always knew I wanted to become a business leader!
I remember back in 8th grade my primary school held a theme week where all the kids had to apply for three jobs like pizza baker, bank teller, journalist, etc…I only applied for CEO jobs!
Fast forward, while still studying at University, I worked several jobs, mostly in Finance. However, at one point, I was so interested in helping companies find the ‘right talent’ that I even considered a career in HR!
