Copenhagen Culture: Fun and active courses that help you get the best out of your stay in
Denmark
How to succeed at the Danish workplace
What really guide the behavior of my Danish collogues – rules, orders or perhaps something else? Is my boss serious when asking my opinion on his/her decisions? How do I excel at work without breaking the ‘Jantelaw’?
Understand the Danish mindset, the flat hierarchy and the many unspoken rules of the workplace,
even those the Danes themselves are hardly aware of. Learn to navigate the secret codes of the
Danish workplace in a safe and open-minded setting with expats like yourself.
How to raise children within the Danish school system
Why is there such a focus on group work in Danish schools? Is there really no discipline? Will my
parenting style be at odds with the Danish mentality?
Understand how the lives of modern Danish children came to be this way, and gain insight into the
principles of the Danish school system. Learning about the values of Danish parents and teachers
will help you adopt an approach to parenting in a new culture, as well as offer you the opportunity
to network with other parents in a similar position.
How to network in Denmark
Do the Danes ever meet up after work? How will I make new friends in Denmark, when Danes
seem to have all the friends they need? How can I find sports clubs other than the usual fitness
centers?
The Danes are often described as difficult to get to know. Settling in a new country is a lot easier
when you know how to network and make new friends with the locals. Discover the tools needed
to make lasting friendships in a closed off Scandinavian atmosphere and learn how to network in
Denmark.
How to understand Denmark and the Danes
Why are the Danes happy to pay high taxes? Why does everybody seem to think the same way?
Are they really among the happiest people in the world? Is happiness even possible in the
darkness of the Danish winter?
Denmark’s small, largely homogenous society has an unusual history. Understanding this history
and the pillars upon which Danish society is built is crucial to thriving here, whether it be for the
long term, or just for a limited time. Get a better understanding of Denmark in a fun and active
way with other expats like yourself.
