Christen Mau Christen Mau (DK) CEO Simple Strategy

Speaking at: Brand Leadership Masterminds

Christen Mau is CEO of Simple Strategy and its tactical department. He makes tools for leaders, so their people deliver results.

Once a Danish LinkedIn superuser — a title that makes him sound interesting without telling you anything about him. He has spent fifteen years listening to people and has advised more of them than he cares to admit on how to communicate clearly and build a profile that gets found, read and remembered.

More tactician than strategist, and perfectly happy with that.
