Hello. I’m Thomas. I’m a Project Manager at Menyou Tech Dev in Stockholm Sweden. I focus on Agile/Lean User Driven Development, Usability, BA, Social Media Strategies and Competitive Awareness.

In a previous life I was a journalist, a musician and a wannabe PhD student in the field of History of Religions.

Mini Resumé

Professional Core Values

- I enjoy the simple clarity of logic.
- I accept nothing at face value.
- I strive to eliminate confusion.
- In processes – custom made soloutions are always preferable over templates.
- I mistrust preconceived notions and conventional truths.
- When things don’t make any sense, I instantly sense it.
- I strive to be adaptable, flexible, and in constant change.
- I believe that all other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best.
- I subscribe to the zero tolerance of nonsense that is the hallmark of any high quality scientific work.
- I am essentially a sceptic – scepticism is the default position of the scientific and journalistic mindset.
- I strive to communicate directly and with precision – vague communication will result in confusion.
- I try to keep a lively sense of humour about everything – especially myself.

Q&A

Q: You’re Swedish. Why do you write in English? What’s up with that?

A: More people round the world can read this if it’s in English, and more importantly: more people can comment.
