3. What was your ambition when you applied to become an EXCO member?
My ambition was and still is to work on the issues that are still on our agenda. I want our European Company Sport Games to be of a high quality where joy, fellowship and the fact that everyone is welcome, permeate the games.

I want to have good governance and gender equality on the agenda of the Exco. Today, there are only two women in the EFCS board and I hope there will be more in the future.
5. Do you want to share specific thoughts/suggestions/ideas about company sport?
Since we spend large parts of our lives in the workplace, it is an crucial place to lower our sedentarity and to increase our well-being. It is important to participate and do small efforts, short breaks, and exercises (easily done during the day!). But also to train and have fun together with colleagues, to become stronger and get a in better condition.
6. Are there specific aspects in the EFCS you are interested in and that you want to see being developed?
The EFCS is an organisation where we can meet on equal terms, play sports and have fun together. It is a great idea and we need it more than ever in Europe now. Many countries, including Sweden, can make the games more popular among their members so that the EFCS grows and becomes even bigger in the future.
7. Is there something else you want to tell about yourself we absolutely ought to know?
I am one of Sweden’s first certified EMS (electronic muscle stimulation) instructors.
