Håvard Johansen

Håvard combines experience from the Norwegian Armed Forces, the United Nations, the humanitarian sector and strategic and operational HR leadership in international energy operations.

As a global HR director, he contributed to developing an international organisation from around 300 to almost 2,000 employees. He understands what happens when strategy, structure, culture and leadership must evolve while the organisation continues to grow and deliver.

For clients, this means an adviser who moves comfortably between strategic questions and everyday practice. Håvard helps leaders turn ambitions into clear roles, ways of working and leadership practices that function across countries, professions and cultures.

He works with strategic HR, leadership and leadership-team development, organisational development, culture and change. His experience from demanding international operations also makes him a relevant mentor for leaders navigating complexity, growth and decisions under pressure.
