Summertime…

Creative Marketing 07 will graduate the 3^rd of July. The students are right now in their final week of producing their thesis, deadline on Wednesday the 24^th of June. Many of them have been offered jobs already and I really look forward to hear all about it!

Creative Marketing 08 is doing their last day of internship. 8 weeks have passed and the students have been all over the place; Scanditoy, Kvällsposten, Ugly Duckling and many more. All the companies have played a major part of each student’s development and a great thanks to all of them!

The final list of students for Creative Marketing 09 is done and will be revealed next week. It has been hard work and I look forward to meet them all the 10^th of August. And I know that KM08 is too!!!

There will be some changes regarding the locations & rooms during summer – some reconstruction of Academedia. KY will change to YH, more information please visit website http://www.yhkommitten.blogspot.com/

 This fall we will have 4 education programs at Academedia in Malmö besides Creative Marketing; Information coordinator, consult with direction recruitment, IT-security and flash programming.

Tomorrow it is midsummer evening in Sweden and it is a big summer holiday. Great food like strawberries and ice cream, physical activities like dancing around the midsummer pole and of course great company, this is a time for family, friends and loved ones. For me personally it will be ALL soccer! Sweden plays against Italy in Helsingborg, the game starts at 16.00.

As the program manager I would like to wish all of you a happy midsummer, fantastic summer and BIG welcome back the 10^th of august.

See you in august; tanned, well rested and foremost ready to take on the world!

Creative Marketing 09

As the program manager I am in the middle of choosing the new class of Creative Marketing 2009.

We have had a tough choice to make; my co-workers, the management team of the education and me. 234 applications came in and we have met most of them. We are announcing the new class the 24th of June. If you are one of the lucky you will receive a letter from Academedia and you will have one week to respond if you accept. Good luck everyone!

Be kind!

What is kind? I have for sure told my son on several occasions when he was little to play nice & be kind. What did I mean? What is kind? As he grew older it was very important for me that he stood his ground, that he didn’t let anyone hit him without self defence. Now he is 16 years old I am currently back on being kind again…maybe it has something to do with his height; 1,97 cm???

Kind is something of a between word, it can be used as a simple description but then again it can be used when you don’t have anything better to say. Apparently there is also an unwritten understanding that kind people get stamped on. The word kind is equal to stupid. I believe it is misused!

Kind people don’t get ahead in life. They let other people treat them badly in some way and sometimes even are more likely to be used by others. Well???

This is the biggest misconception ever! Kind people in my own personal view are the ones to be recon with. Kind people tell the truth no matter what. Kind people don’t let their own egos get the best of them and kind people have your best interest at heart! Whatever that might be!

One of my all times personal favourite books is called; “The art of being kind.” The correct translation in Swedish is “Konsten att vara snäll.” The author is Stefan Einhorn, he is a professor of molecular oncology at Karolinska Institutet and a medical doctor specialised in oncology. He is also the chairman of the ethics council at Karolinska Institutet.

Stefans thoughts and words are a true inspiration for me personally as for so many others and it is with the greatest admiration and pleasure I announce that Stefan is one of three lecturers at Academedias day of inspiration the 15^th of October in Malmö!
