    Differences how Nordics do...

    The Swedes discuss it.

    They go to meetings. Lots of them. It's a national hobby. They have a meeting on Monday morning but never on a Friday afternoon. They have meetings to end up sharing the same opinion. It's called the förankringsprocess.

    The Danes dismiss it.

    They agree to something at a meeting, especially if there are lot of Swedes present. The Swedes of course believe them. Being the individualists of the north, the Danes go home and do something completely different. Det var rigtig hyggeligt!

    The Norwegians get around to it.

    They are in no hurry. After a brown cheese sandwich for lunch at 11 they leave work at 4 pm. If they the Norwegians work overtime, for example an extra half-hour to 4.30 pm, then their employer is bound by law to feed them on pizza - it's called overtidsmat.

    The Finns just do it

    It’s called sisu. The power of the Finn is the sisu within. They just get on with it. They’ve already done it before the Swedes have their måndagsmöte, the Norwegians their brown cheese matpakke and the Danes their Friday morning morgenmad sammen på kontoret. In Finland an awkward silence is never awkward. In meetings you may think Ari looks as if he has mentally gone to lunch. He is just concentrating.
