Jenny Jakobsson
My name is Jenny Jakobsson and I am the founder of Adlignum. My primary driving force as entrepreneurs is the joy of contributing to a sustainable change that leads to smarter, more efficient, attractive and competitive companies and organizations. Together with many skilled colleagues, we form teams aligned in capacity to the needs of our clients.
My background
After graduating from the Business School at Gothenburg Univeristy, I worked for many years within the SEB Bank in a various roles, including branch manager, corporate and finance adviser, many times connected to business development.
As International Head and Coordinator in the non-profit sector 2006-2012, I was responsible for complex international efforts in education, health care and organizational development in Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.
Focus on sustainability
In Adlignum, which I am running since 2012, I use both the international experience as knowledge and experience from business and business development, coaching, organizational and leadership development. During this time, I have also built on my skills with a number of courses and education with a master’s degree in leadership in a global context.
The common denominator of the business is sustainability, both for individuals, groups and communities. With this focus, helping others find their full capacity and optimize their resources is the best I know!

Research
To understand more about how we can increase the knowledge of how African companies can survive over the first generation, we have launched an interactive research project in Nigeria. The purpose is to identify a process model that can be used in many places in Africa.
We are a team from both Sweden and Nigeria. Together with Annika Hall, researcher and expert on generational switches, we conduct workshops, training and offer families coaching in the process.
We are writing on two different articles in the field.
