#41 - Stefan Syrén - An international business leader & ironman

Stefan Syrén has built his career around leading and transforming international businesses. With a background spanning Procter & Gamble, Papyrus and Alliance Healthcare, he has developed extensive experience in driving change, performance and growth across industries, markets and cultures.

Today, Stefan is President and CEO of Gunnebo Group, a global security business focused on Entrance Control and Safe Storage. Since taking the CEO role in 2019, he has led Gunnebo through a significant transformation – reshaping the portfolio, sharpening the strategic focus and building an organisation positioned for profitable international growth.

In this episode of the BayInCo Podcast, Stefan shares his leadership journey and the experiences that have shaped his view of what it takes to successfully lead organisations through transformation and change.

Together, we explore what great leadership looks like when strategy needs to become action. How do you create clarity and engagement during major change? How do you decide what to focus on – and what to stop doing? And how do you build teams that combine accountability, trust and performance?

We also explore another important part of Stefan’s life: his passion for Ironman training and competition. The discipline, preparation and perseverance required to take on an Ironman provide an interesting parallel to leadership – setting ambitious goals, dealing with setbacks and continuing to perform when things get tough.

Whether you are a CEO, senior leader or simply interested in leadership and performance, this conversation offers valuable insights into transformation, culture, resilience and what it takes to keep moving forward.
