Alexandra Edlund is a Chief People Officer at EQT Group. She possess expertise in recruiting, talent management, human resources, employer branding, hr consulting and 8 more skills. Colleagues describe her as "When Alexandra joined EQT, she was assigned to be my HR business partner when I was the head of EQT’s New York City office and we were accelerating the growth of EQT’s US operations. Our goal was not only to accelerate recruiting of investment professionals and administrative staff with the required excellent skills and experiences, but just as important, we needed to build a team that continued to fit EQT’s unique and demanding corporate culture. Based out of Stockholm, Alexandra spent a lot of time in the New York City office building strong relationships with the employees and to assess the needs of the business. She was an excellent partner for me as we interviewed candidates and challenged each other whether candidates would bring the diversity of skills, experiences and interpersonal styles that we sought. Alexandra is very personable and one’s first impression of her is that she is self-effacing with a reserved personality. Her personality and style allows her to build trust quickly with employees, a key criteria in my view to have open and honest two-way communication. But I also saw the side of Alexandra that is tough and very decisive when she faced demanding personnel situations that required difficult but necessary decisions and action. Alexandra is dedicated to her career and to the projects in which she is assigned. She constantly seeks feedback because she strives to keep improving as an HR professional. I enjoyed working with Alexandra and she made me more effective as a business leader.", "If Alexandra has promised to deliver something, you know you can count on her. She goes the extra mile and always sets high standards for delivery and keeping promises. She has high potential to become a great leader within HR since she always listens to feedback and take action, even tough not comfortable at all time she takes steps out of her comfort zone and develops every day at work. I've seen her develop from a recruiter to an excellent HR Business partner this last year. She has the right mindset to work with HR since she can combine the business needs and align that with what HR can help out with. She has been a pleasure working with and I do hope we get the chance to work again in the future!", and "Alexandra has a unique combination of drive, business understanding and interest in people and leadership. This allows her to deliver high business impact, while still keeping a strong people focus. I am confident that she can achieve anything she puts her mind to and I give her my very best recommendation."
