Elekta has gone through major transformations in recent years, growing its presence in Finland through acquisitions. The driving forces behind these changes have been ambitious growth goals and a genuine desire to better serve their customers.
When Elekta needed an interim HR Manager in Finland, someone capable of taking on a demanding role with confidence and professionalism, we stepped in.
Over the course of a year, our consultant streamlined and harmonized HR operations, built solid foundations for HR, and advanced key development initiatives.
What quality HR work included:
- Local implementation of global HR processes
- Acting as a trusted member of the local leadership team
- Supporting management through change
- Advising leaders and employees on employment-related matters
- Establishing a local leadership forum
- Harmonizing HR practices
- Preparing statutory HR plans
- Running a competitive tender for occupational health services
“The consultant quickly understood the business and the day-to-day demands of the role. Her approach was self-driven, thorough, and always of high quality. I had complete trust in her work — she made my job easier and allowed me to focus elsewhere, knowing the Finnish HR operations were in capable hands. The consultant built strong relationships with employees and stakeholders in no time. I’d gladly work with her again. I warmly recommend her and the team.”

A Leadership Forum to Support Everyday Leadership
At Elekta, there had long been a need for a local leadership forum. Together with Elekta, our coach designed a leadership development program tailored to their needs — one that supports both people and business growth.
“The program has strengthened our sense of community. Leaders have found valuable peer support from one another, and psychological safety among them has clearly grown.”
The goal of the leadership forum was to align and deepen the understanding of leadership across the organization, and to strengthen the local culture and community through leadership.
“The interim HR Manager was praised for her strong HR expertise, insight, effectiveness, and reliability — not to mention her great sense of humor. It’s truly a pleasure to work with her!”
