Based on many years as an executive HR Leader, I am devoted to helping employees, leaders and organizations perform and deliver at their best. I conduct my advisory with great care and diligence.

At Advised by I help clients with search in finance, investments, HR, IT, communication and legal functions. My experience also includes search of specialists in shipping, pharma, construction and real estate.

Managing Partner

My services include executive outplacement, an area I care deeply about. I have extensive experience in leadership coaching, -development and -assessment.

As an Advisor, I deliver precisely and with great empathy. With a background in the armed forces and the past 15 years as HR Director, I have enjoyed vast international responsibilities, build my experience in executive HR and -management and come to understand and know the commercial side of a business. I have worked in a range of industries such as shipping, big pharma and construction.

I bring all my experience and expertise to every case/project I am dedicated to and I believe sincere involvement and a strategic direction is the core of our advisory.

Anja Chemnitz Thygesen

I know and understand the importance of the right employee at the right company. The essence of my work is a combination of experience and creativity. My approach to research and analysis is derived from my extensive experience, working with international and Nordic management consultancies, as well as a creative and tailor-made methodology to all projects. I consider this approach the reason why I can deliver a quality candidate field and why the process and dialog with candidates is relevant and precise.

Kristina Czigany

With my previous experience as a senior HR executive in international organisations primarily within professional service firms and the financial industry, I have gained a solid commercial understanding in addition to the knowledge and skill set I have built over the years. I bring a business-focused mindset to my work, ensuring our services provide measurable value to our clients. I aim to foster an honest and respectful space and always strive to bring a unique perspective and expertise to our clients.

 I enjoy helping individuals and organisations achieving their goals.

Partner

While my academic background comprises a master’s degree in law, my true passion lies in optimising human capital and facilitating successful partnerships. At Advised by, I build on this passion by providing candidates who not only possess the required qualifications but also align with the client’s culture and values. I believe that investing in individuals’ growth and well-being not only enhances personal satisfaction but also drives organisational success. I am dedicated to helping individuals reach their full potential, whether it be through targeted searches and recruitments, compassionate outplacement, or empowering leadership development programs.

Lykke Rix

I believe that leadership is fundamentally about people, not just strategy. If people don’t feel safe, they can’t perform at their best. When we are under pressure—questioning our own value or whether we truly belong—we tend to react in ways, that are not beneficial for the team or the company. This is why leaders need to master three core skills: creating psychological safety, developing relational competence, and leading with integrity.

For the past 20 years, I’ve perfected how to take insights and knowledge and turn them into real behavior, vocabulary, and habits in daily life. That’s my goal in every program, whether I’m working with individuals or teams.”

Head of Leadership Development

At Advised By I offer Executive Coaching, with or without the Hogan Assessment as a foundation, as well as facilitated programs for leadership teams.

We also offer introductory workshops on psychological safety and relational competence. All of these initiatives are grounded in understanding human patterns, individual differences, and how people react under pressure.

I hold a PCC certification from the ICF (International Coach Federation) and has conducted over 3,000 coaching sessions across all organizational levels. Since 2006, I have also been teaching at both basic and master’s levels at Sofia Manning Coach Training.

I have partnered with leading organizations such as Novo Nordisk, Bestseller, Ecco, Novozymes, Rockwool, and Ørsted as well as small start-ups, public institutions such as Odense and Gladsaxe Kommune  and family-owned businesses. Earlier in my career, I worked with DR News and the Danish Embassy in Washington. Additionally, I am a certified divorce coach from the USA—a skillset that has proven to be highly applicable in managing complex interpersonal dynamics within corporate settings.
