This week, Derek and Annie welcome back Mike Walsh to talk about what it’s really like to work in Denmark. As a former host of the show, Mike has not only worked in the studio, but has worked in Denmark as well as hiring and managing both Danish and international workers. He shares all of his insights of navigating the work culture in Denmark and around Europe as he has managed and visited international work sites. 

You’ll learn more about the culture clashes one may face in Denmark and learn whether or not the famous Danish work life balance exists. The trio discuss what stereotypes exist for Americans, Danes, and other nationalities that may or may not be true. Annie reveals the nationalities of her favorite colleagues, and Derek explains the Danish workplace benefits his American brain could not comprehend when he first started working in Denmark.

All this and more is covered in this episode and you shouldn’t forget to share it with any friends or colleagues who are thinking about or have made the move to Denmark.
