KELD JENSEN BIOGRAPHY

Keld Jensen is a sought-after international keynote speaker, delivering his presentations across Asia, Europe and the USA and Canada.  His highly engaging speaking style and his innovative content have made him a sought-after keynote and workshop presenter for senior corporate executives, legal and professional associations, trade organizations, government agencies, and diplomatic officials.

Jensen is an acclaimed speaker, author, advisor and professor, making him one of the most-published experts in his field. He has received several honours and awards for his publications, and his most recent book, Honest Negotiation, was recognized as Amazon’s #1 New Release in its category.  He was voted one of the best public speakers in Scandinavia.  A native of Denmark, Mr. Jensen currently lives in the US – but his work is global in nature.

Keld Jensen brings an entirely fresh perspective to the process of bargaining for something you want. Using his approach, both parties to a commercial transaction leave the table with much more than they originally thought possible. Jensen’s unique expertise lies at the intersection of three crucial areas – trust, behavioural economics and negotiations.

Jensen is a highly-experienced negotiator who brings insight and judgment to commercial transactions from his seasoned corporate perspective and more than 25 years of experience in international management, negotiation, and communication. He has acquired a global following as a result of his highly-rated speaking engagements at international conferences, his widely published media commentary, and the publication of 24 books in 36 countries in 14 different languages. He has also served as Chairman of the Centre for Negotiation at the Copenhagen Business School.

Through his early experience at Xerox and Toshiba, he gained a solid foundation in problem-solving from the corporate perspective. He has served as CEO of a publicly-traded Scandinavian company and participated in numerous start-ups. He has advised many of the leading companies in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North America while serving as CEO of his own research development and consulting firm. Keld Jensen has documented his innovative ideas through original research, reported in internationally-recognized publications.

He is often used as a commentator in national and international media and has written feature articles for the Financial Times, Forbes, CNBC, The Christian Science Monitor, BusinessWeek.com, Berlingske Tidende, and Børsen. His articles have appeared in industry publications such as the Institute for Supply Management, Producers, eSource, Business Ethics, Industry Week, Portfolio.com, ChiefExecutive.net, CareerBuilder.com, and eSide Supply Management. He appears frequently in the broadcast media as a highly-regarded commentator and expert on international business issues.  Keld Jensen is a contributor to Forbes magazine, on the subjects of negotiation, trust and behavioural economics, reaching more than 2.8 million readers globally.

Keld Jensen is a former CEO of a public IT company and today heads an advisory organization in the industry. Based in the US, he is now an Associate Professor at Arizona State University’s Thunderbird School of Global Management, an Associate Professor at Aalborg University in Denmark, and a lecturer in the eMBA program at Lithuania’s Baltic Management Institute. He is also frequently featured as a guest lecturer at a number of international universities.

In 2016, he was awarded Top Thought Leader in Trust. In,2017, he received the award: “Best Negotiation Tender” by the Organization of Public Procurement Officers in Denmark, and an Award for outstanding Service Provider/innovator by ACCM.  The same year Jensen was named as one of the top 100 global thought leaders in the area of trust, by the organizations Trust Across America and Trust Across the World.

In 2017, his client, the Danish company BlueKolding received an award for the year’s Best Negotiation/Tender Strategy from Denmark’s Organization of Public Procurement Officers, for their application of Mr. Jensen’s unique business-strategy concept, SMARTnership.

This same SMARTnership concept also won the 2018 International Association of Contract & Commercial Management (IACCM) Innovation Award.  Furthermore, Keld’s NegoEconomics financial concept has been recognized as a groundbreaking approach to financial development in negotiations and endorsed by a number of international organizations.  Among his list of distinguished clients, you will find the Government of Canada, the Danish Armed Forces, Novo Nordisk Corporation, Johnson & Johnson, Danske Bank, LEGO, Rolls Royce, Microsoft, Carlsberg and EADS.
