HR United

“Gorm took the initiative some years back to found the original HR United network which was a meeting based exclusive group of HR managers from companies who excelled in the Danish Great Place to Work survey. We all appreciated the group members and the group dynamics and got to know Gorm as an open, enthusiastic and focused person to whom new ideas and approaches come easy.
Now he has expanded the idea of sharing best practise in HR to a much broader audience online, which is in good line with his extrovert personality and search for excellence and learning for both himself and others. I appreciate his company; you always feel that you develop on a personal or professional level – and often both.” April 24, 2010

“Gorm Wiegand was the project manager of a three-year international EU project, under my leadership, with partners from England, Spain, Italy and Portugal. Gorm Wiegand was the project’s promoter. He was responsible for establishing cooperation between the partners involved; he structured and prepared the project documents and the applications to the EU structural fund, which provided the economic foundation of the project. Throughout the duration, Gorm tied together the different elements of the research and development that was carried out. Lastly, he was responsible for the final debriefing, and the general management of the project, which was completed without remarks from partners or the EU commission auditors.

I have learned to know Gorm as a knowledgeable, autonomous and industrious man, with a flair for creating social networks and maintaining them. He is highly regarded by leaders, colleagues and employees, in addition to being well-balanced, full of initiative and results-oriented, though never unreasonable.” April 29, 2010
