End of "Running a Business"

We have now ended the module "Running a Business".
This week we had a presentation for the whole class, Sandro Miletti (which har been our mentor during this module) and our co-workers Åsa and Sofie.
Me, Peter and Stefan had our personal presentation this friday for Blekinge Institute of Technology, External relations office who we worked for in this module. We did present our analysis of how they could develop their organization further which was very appreciated.

Tommorow we start our new module, "LIA", for 11 weeks.
I will be at the company UIQ in Ronneby and practise together with a project manager from UIQ. I look forward to this very much...

Armed Forces

Our assignment in ”Running a Business” is to work shadow a company or organisation and then write a report that can give the company a fresh point of view and new great ideas.
Both Julia and I felt that we wanted to explore something new other then the media and marketing companies we been working with before, so we choose the Swedish Armed Forces and the airforce battalion F17 in Ronneby. It turned out to be a great choice, they really appriciated the help we could give them, because it’s quite a “closed” organisation so we really felt that it was a “win win situation”. So far we´ve been participated in meetings and other daily activities, we have been in Stockholm at the headquarters for the Swedish Armed Forces because our mentor had the mission to coordinate the group that´s going with him on his mission abroad in Kosovo for 6 months. That was a great experience and we learned a lot.

By the way, Hyper is great!
