The International is a monthly online and in-print independent publication that presents compelling stories and useful content aimed to assist internationals, expats and repats in their adjustment to life in Denmark. Our Founder and Editor, Lyndsay Jensen is an international herself. Having called Denmark home for over two decades, she's combined her extensive design and publication background with her first-hand experiences and difficulties as an expat. This was how The International Denmark was born. Her goal in starting the paper and what fuels the whole team at The International, has always been to show what it's really like to live in Denmark, to share in the highs and support one another through the lows, and ultimately to have a better understanding of one another.

People first. It's good business. There are countless obstacles in any leadership situation when driving a happy, motivated team that also has to perform their best not to mention to improve every day. Many leaders today got their role through seniority because they worked their way up, which is excellent. Still, great leadership skills don't appear with many years of experience in a certain position. Leadership skills have to be learned and always developed, as a leader has the most significant responsibility of all, the people. That is not an easy task and as organizations develop into more remote work and diverse teams the challenge has never been bigger. We have commissioned each other to settle for mediocre leadership because leaders are too busy with other assignments than checking in on the people. But this needs to change, and all change is difficult. Changing leaders' mindset to put people first, will create happier team members who are less likely to quit, which will leave everyone more motivated to do their tasks. Motivated team members deliver better results, and that is good business. It's not a cliche it's a fact. We have built an easy-to-use tool that supports leaders in creating and upholding a feedback culture, where leaders improve and develop through honest feedback from their team members. We help leaders identify and take action on team challenges ensuring happy and motivated teams with the best conditions to perform. If people are given the right conditions to succeed, they will.

HelloAgent builds real estate solutions that help agents and stakeholders automate parts of their business. By providing actionable data and a software platform to boot, users can build automated marketing campaigns with hyper personalized marketing content for print. This has been a trivial an time consuming effort in the past, and the results has usually been sub par. With our software users can create messages that works, thus saving time and money, as well as getting much higher ROI on their marketing spend compared to traditional methods (flyers/direct mails). The company was founded by Simon Saxtorph who is himself a real estate agent. At a point where he wanted to become an independent agent, he found the tools that bigger agencies had access to, was not available for smaller, independent agents. This sparked the idea that that, perhaps other agents were missing out on market share, simply because they didn't have access to certain tools. This was quickly confirmed, and thus began the journey on building the ultimate toolset for agents and stakeholders.

ORIGINS The story begins with two Portuguese siblings from Porto separated by different life paths. One, fully established in Copenhagen, Denmark and working as an Architect with a strong creativity mindset, focused in family, devoted mom of two lovely ones and an healthy lifestyle supporter. The other one, currently in Lisbon, Portugal working as an Executive Director and Brand Management Consultant for several design and furniture firms. Both with very different but complementary skills, a strong link between two highly contrasting cultures, a great desire of working together and something that glues everything together, Længsel. This special feeling led these two young siblings to create something unique in which they could spend some time together, exploring their particular skills, infusing a truly Danish experience and Scandinavian design influence with a very strong Portuguese background and heritage. And so, Længsel Design is born. The architectural lines, the contemporary elegance and the Scandinavian style are very present in pieces that were inspired by Portuguese historical marks, landscapes and cultural aspects. The nature of the brand privileges the local handmade and craftworks, natural materials and a sustainable relationship across the whole value chain. NEW NORDIC DESIGN In the Nordic product design, there is a necessity of practicality, with a focus on usefulness and durability, taking into account the surrounding natural world and its resources. Our point on new Nordic design is to incorporate the functionality, craftsmanship, minimalism and creative courage in every one of our creations. SUSTAINABLE CRAFTSMANSHIP At Længsel we are dedicated to reduce our environmental impact. We have a continuous research about the best sustainable options for our products. We choose woods that can be recycled or replaceable in a fast-growing rate. We look for fabrics that are rapidly renewable, biodegradable, recyclable or can be produced organically. PRODUCTION The production is all done in Portugal reinforcing a unique perspective on Laengsel´s creations. We want to innovate and defy crystalized ideas by having a close relationship with our local portuguese craftsman. We are proud to experience by first hand that they give all their love and knowledge to our minimalist and long lasting designs.

We believe that conversations and negotiations – especially in a business-to-business context – are not ideal. Our skewed motivations and insufficient knowledge about the situation lead to suboptimal proposals: we say things that do not matter and leave some essentials unsaid. We waste everyone's time discussing with the wrong people, and we make deals that are actually bad for us. We at Stealth Black believe that a computer that sees things just as they really are and knows everything about everything can make a difference here. We are building the guardian angel that sits on your shoulder, guides you forward, and watches your back.
