Episode 24: Katja Larsen – global CEO who successfully sets

My latest Danish podcast, featuring journalist Pernille Enggaard and IDA for ledere, was released yesterday on Spotify! Thank you, Pernille Enggaard and Vibeke Ahlmann, for looking beyond Denmark and highlighting Danish women who are striving to make a difference on the global stage.

In this episode, I share my journey as a STEM woman and company owner in India focused on ESG integration and awareness, highlighting why these issues are crucial in today’s business landscape. I also reflect on my experience navigating diverse industries and cultures across Asia, including China, India, and the broader Asia Pacific region. Additionally, I discuss my role as a board member at the Indian-listed company CARYSIL, which exports to Europe, the US, and the UK, and how the company’s Indian management is progressive in its approach. We discuss the challenges women face in reaching board-level positions and explore ways we can better support and empower more women to join boards. Tune in to hear about the challenges, opportunities, and lessons I’ve learned along the way!

A quick note: the podcast is in Danish, so it’s best suited for Danish-speaking listeners.
