Jörgen Jönsson, one of the ice hockey world's most meritorious, is building his second career as a Senior Trainee at the management consulting company Effect Management. 

"Effect Management works with consulting for the management of companies and organizations. A large part of the business is leadership training and development of groups and organizations. It is with great joy as the management consultancy now welcomes Jörgen Jönsson, one of the ice hockey world's most merited, as a Senior Trainee at the company".

"It feels like a new start and I am enormously charged. I'm in a phase in life where I've made up my mind to build a platform for my further development. At Effect there are all opportunities to learn me to use what I have built up during my sports career and the time after," says Jörgen Jonsson. 

As part of the trainee program at Effect, Jörgen will also participate in Cruyff Management Diploma for Athletes (MDA). Effect has been involved in the Cruyff Institute's training since then started in Sweden four years ago and has been engaged in improving the conditions for professionals inathletes who end their sports career and will take their next step in their career. Among them as before passed MDA profiles such as Magdalena Forsberg, Peter Forsberg, Stefan Xet Erixsson, Jesper Blomqvist, Therese Borssén and Mattias Jonsson. 

“When successful athletes set new goals for a second career, receive professional support and new knowledge and dare to believe in and use all the experience they have built up during their sports career unlocks an incredible potential. I am convinced that with this arrangement we do Jörgen's experiences from his leadership role in sports available to many companies and organizations and of course strengthens Effect. There is much to learn between business, administration and sports. The arrangement with "Senior Trainee" and Jörgen is completely unique as far as I'm concerned know," says Peter Rovér, CEO of Effect Management. 

Jörgen Jönsson will start the trainee program in August 2014. 

"I see this as a one-year internship and our common goal is that I will then work with leadership and group development for business, administration and hopefully also in sports. Effect is a competence center and a very good one platform for this", concludes Jörgen Jönsson.
