Welcome to the Afternoon Tea Conversations with WGH Norway!
We welcome you to grab a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the next interview part of the series introducing the WGH Norway Advisory Group. Meet Marie Louise Sunde as she discusses her journey from being a medical doctor, specifically a surgeon, to co-founding her own company. With her experience as a young surgeon in a male dominated field along with her passion for equal and women's rights, she was motivated to further focus on diversity inclusion and unconscious biases and start Equality Check. Equality Check assists employers to identify and measure equality gaps, and presents evidence-based solutions to close them. Finally, she offers her words of wisdom to the next generation and reflects on the importance of trusting yourself and instincts. Watch the full interview!
