Alexandra Pasternak-Jackson Email & Phone Number

I am passionate about business growth, leadership development, transatlantic relations, Foreign Direct Investment, diversity and inclusion, public speaking, women leaders, and plant-based food. I frequently give talks or lead workshops on these themes in both Finland and the US. I am often asked to contribute on U.S. elections, politics, economy, and social themes, but if you ask me about FDI and its critical role in Finland that's when I really get excited. It's a topic I'm happy to discuss anytime. I have a problem-solving, entrepreneurial mindset with solid interpersonal and management skills. Constructive and positive, I work to bring the best out in others and in myself. I pride myself on being articulate, open-minded, and resourceful. I love to read, dance, and learn. I have lived and traveled extensively across Europe and the United States, and currently live in Helsinki with my husband and two children. As Amcham Finland's CEO I am proud that the work we do makes the Finnish economy more resilient, gives our business leaders a strong community of support with leadership- and business development, and offers a pragmatic and business-driven view of the transatlantic relationship. I am absolutely passionate about promoting an open and diverse economy that welcomes and celebrates international investment to Finland.

Listed skills include International Business, International Relations, Program Management, Business Strategy, and 46 others.
