We are proud to present our first talk of the semester with CEO of VELUX Group, Jørgen Tang-Jensen.
Topic: Value-based leadership: Balancing business performance and CSR
Access to daylight and fresh air is a vital part of Jørgen Tang-Jensen’s DNA as he has been with the VELUX Group for more than 25 years.
He is educated Cand.Merc. and has taken an MBA at Aarhus Business School and came to the VELUX Group in 1981. By taking up leading positions in several European sales companies he attained a thorough understanding of the business, the challenges and the opportunities.
At IMD, Switzerland and Stanford University, California, he refined this insight and in 2001 he became CEO of the VELUX Group succeeding the founder’s son Lars Kann-Rasmussen.
The VELUX Group is the world leading manufacturer of roof windows. The Company works globally – with sales and manufacturing operations in more than 40 countries and around 10,000 employees world-wide. The VELUX Group is owned by VKR Holding, a limited company wholly owned by foundations and family.
