Om mig
- Mit navn er Jan Strandgaard – Jeg har arbejdet 29 år i Danfoss, KEW Industry og Grundfos som udviklingsingeniør, projektleder, leder, chef og direktør for R&D-organisationer.
Pr. 1/8-2019 har jeg valgt at indlede et nyt kapitel i mit arbejdsliv. Jeg er startet som selvstændig inden for:
- -Projektledelse & ledelse
- -Organisationsudvikling & forandringsledelse
- -EFQM assessment
Jeg brænder for at bruge den erfaring, jeg har fået igennem årene i flere forskellige organisationer og virksomheder. Mit specialeområde er R&D-organisationer, men jeg henvender mig også til andre funktioner i virksomheden.
Jeg udfører opgaverne ved dels at være på kundens lokation og dels fra eget kontor.
Jeg påtager mig længerevarende projekter, forløb på timebasis samt enkeltstående konsultationer.

”I have had the pleasure of working with Jan Strandgaard for several years at Grundfos where we were in the same Management Group. The last interaction I had with him was when he was heading a large and complex change project. It was the biggest change project ever run in the global R&D organization. The project identified a completely new way of working in the R&D organization influencing not only the global R&D organization but the full value chain at Grundfos. It was a multinational and multi stakeholder project that both came up with new ways of working as well as a completely new organizational design. I see Jan as a strong Project Manager. During the execution he keeps his eye on the end goal while still paying attention to how it influences people around him. In the above project he particularly focused on stakeholder management, communication and change management”
Claus Riisgaard
HR Director, Beumer Group A/S
”Jan worked with us for 18 months as the project leader to standardize our global engineering processes, migrate to a common PLM system, FEA simulate and redesign of a product portfolio and update engineering drawings in order to enable a production transfer. During his time with us Jan brought a great deal of valuable experience and expertise that he was able to apply from day one. He was more than a consultant and displayed a high level of accountability for results, balancing this with the change management skills needed to get strong buy-in both from the project team and senior management. For a period of 7 months Jan also acted as interim R&D manager for the R&D locations in UK and Sweden. I would strongly recommend Jan for his functional and project leadership skills and his ability to successfully apply these in complex and challenging transformation projects. ”
