I am Mariola Kajkowska, the founder and CEO of First Friend in Denmark. I moved to Denmark from Poland 17 years ago and understand first-hand the challenges facing new internationals. I set up First Friend in Denmark to provide diverse businesses with the keys they need to increase international employee retention. Denmark is known for its work-life balance, friendliness and hygge, but it can be challenging for internationals to understand the nuances of Danish culture and get that important sense of beloning.
I want to help diverse businesses like yours suceed in retainting their international employees. My 4 Keys Program works with companies and their international employees to build a culture of inclusion, provide personalized insights into how to best help your international employees thrive, and give your international employees insiders knowledge into how to flourish as an international in Denmark.
I also work with companies in attracting, recruiting, onboarding and retaining international talent.
