Irina Viitala
International Growth

As a reasonably lively visionary, I am extremely good at filling my calendar with more interesting ideas, people, projects and responsibilities, so I have had to become a master of time management, chaos theory and delegation.

As such a young middle-aged businesswoman, I have had the opportunity to work extensively in marketing, sales, customer service and communications in my career of more than 20 years. All of them have accumulated experience in their golden youth, first at the operational level and then for more than ten years as a boss & consultant, developing, producing and training. A small handful of own companies have gathered so far — they have come and gone, so the all-encompassing School of Entrepreneurship has been completed in all respects. And also those studies in corporate communications.

Today I am inspired by problem-solving in the business world, the challenges of internationalization, multidimensional discussions and, of course, the masterclass of time management and well-being! I get excited when I go jogging in the morning and find a new way to do something even more agile. To shape what exists to be better.

As a resident of the Spanish Sun Coast, I am happy to see the palm trees — but also to see the progress of my work community, the growth of clients' companies and the increase in joy in my circle of friends. And forever! In addition to all of the above activities and interests, I also Finnish Entrepreneurs Association of Spain as chairman, promoting opportunities for Finnish entrepreneurs here in the promised land of the sun.

One life, live it!
