About me
I studied sociology but started to work as a journalist. I loved to interview people and write articles, but got promoted again and again.
I learned about business management and economics. There were new products, mergers, cutbacks, crisis. After 30 years in media and publishing I found a new path. Coaching.
There needn’t be a best before date for a coach, if you like to develop your skills incessantly. I do.

“Barbro Teir worked with the expanded management team during the merger between the two vocational institutes Prakticum and Inveon in Finland. For me as the CEO, Barbro’s input was crucial for us to succeed so well in the implementation of the organisational change. Barbro works with commitment and coaching and requires all participants to take part wholeheartedly.
Personally, I got a lot of help in how to deal with mass media. I learned how journalists work and got skills for meeting them, which I have had concrete use of.”
