About Jens Peter Hansen
Exploiting his background working as a farmer; a scientist and an innovation-focused neo-generalist, Jens Peter combines a thorough realistic understanding of digital, communication, business and people’s needs with a deep understanding of organizational and political issues.
This combined with a creative mindset enables him to take the role as innovation broker purposefully catalysing innovation by bringing together and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders representing different types of expertise, knowledge and resources. As a spin-off of such processes, he has evolved into being an experienced fundraiser with a focus on the development and funding of both national and international R&D projects.
Years of experiences in politics and a number of directorships have refined my abilities to communicate with a wide range of individuals, groups and cultures using the most effective techniques in the given context. Jens Peter has a strong strive for knowledge and sharing of knowledge so to help others improve their performance.
Having a creative and analytical mindset, Jens Peter is proactive and action-oriented. Motivated by challenges and driven by passion and perseverance, he makes it to the finish line for enjoying the sweet taste of success.
As a politician, Jens Peter enjoys working with highly skilled professionals in the administration, and he strives to create conditions for citisens, so to nudge them to take responsibility for themselves and their family and contribute to society, as they are able to.
His focus is particularly on getting more people biking more often – this will give a substantial reduction in health costs - and fighting climate changes by the use of renewable energy.
