About First Forty

The list of things I wish I knew sooner in life is close to endless.

This is my attempt at gathering the actionable tips and tricks I’ve picked up from great people along the way, and that could hopefully help you too in your first 40 days in a new job, or even first 40 years of life in general.

About me

I’m Andreas Sødal Marstad. By day, I work on hard problems with fantastic colleagues in Execu (Lederpodden, Lederprogrammet) Kristiansand. By night, I read books and iron shirts.

(MS Lofoten was one of the ships I had the pleasure of working with in Hurtigruten. Now she’s retired, but I still see her almost every day near my home. Old ships are awesome!)
