Freyr Ólafsson is a Strategic Management Consultant, Investor & Author. They is proficient in German, Norwegian, Danish and English. Colleagues describe them as "Freyr is everything you could want in a leader. He's knowledgeable, compassionate, understanding, recognizes the balance of fun and work; he's the kind of boss who treats you like a peer while still commanding authority, and the kind of person who you want to keep in touch with once you're no longer co-workers. He is an excellent communicator and was easy to work with even from 4,000 miles and 6 timezones away." and "I worked with Freyr during some very rapid growth phases in VOIP communications, particularly during the migration from PC based VOIP to handheld/mobile VOIP. Freyr built programming and IT/Dev/Ops teams consisting of internal employees and independent contractors that were spread across varied companies, countries, time-zones, cultures and languages. I am amazed at his ability to bring about positive and innovative results to highly technical challenges. Freyr is a pleasure to work with. He exhibits a contagious, positive outlook in conducting his work. That coupled with his skills and experience he is well suited to provide services to many different project scopes. Freyr can drive projects that range from singly-provided, hands-on services and ranging out to sourcing and managing larger scale and longer term projects that will draw on his skills in managing teams across multiple regions and time cycles. I look forward to my next opportunity to work with Freyr on a project. "
