I am Stein-Otto Svorstøl, an engineering manager, executive and coach with a passion for building high-performing teams and organizations. That means that my job is understanding the business, and coaching and developing all parts of the organization to deliver as much value as possible. Currently, I work as COO & consultant for Capra Consulting in Oslo, Norway.

My most recent engagements have been building high-performing empowered teams that build infrastructure and network solutions (i.e. the IT platform) for both developers and media systems/teams at NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting Service) and helping Airthings with Way of Working and OKRs. Currently, I am leading a product team at Vy (a Norwegian railway company) while developing new services internally in my consultancy. In addition, I am working on a master’s degree in leadership at BI.

Outside work I enjoy hiking and other outdoorsy activities, reading books, listening to music, drinking gin and wine, and spending unproportionatel amounts of time researching novelty devices. I also have a dog called Doppler, named after both the Doppler effect and Doppler. He’s on Instragram, for some reason.

Sometimes I think about things and even write some thoughts down. Sometimes I publish those thoughts here on my blog.
