From experienced CEO to preferred business consultant

After many years of permanent employment, Norwegian Cathrine Nagell wanted to try her hand as a consultant. It was the start of a new career as a business consultant, legal and management expert and project manager.

Cathrine Nagell has a law degree from the University of Oslo. She has 26 years of experience in a rights management company dealing with intellectual property rights issues.

Skills which are in high demand by the various clients she now helps as a consultant.

 

Experienced manager

– At one point, I told myself that I had become an experienced lady, and it was time to find a new career path. Being a problem-solver was precisely the kind of challenge that had driven me for 11 years as a director.

Legal compliance often lags behind the business, and there are always obstacles to overcome. At the same time, she says I had the desire and courage to get to know a new field as an experienced expert.

 

I was convinced my background would be the perfect fit

– At that time, I had no experience with compliance and GDPR projects. Still, I thought quite the opposite. I was convinced that with a legal background and vast experience as a CEO, I would be the perfect fit as an interim manager, project manager or similar, she says.

And with that as a starting point, Cathrine Nagell started a dialogue with several consulting companies about assignments. And with emagine, she acted as an advisor delivering solution proposals in her first assignments.

Enjoys the freedom

Cathrine Nagell emphasises that she now enjoys the freedom of helping different clients with their projects.

– It allows me to work independently, and I am incredibly grateful. In her advisor roles, she remarks, I can essentially draw on my background as a manager and lawyer.
