Since 1996 I have run Internova &amp; Co. and is a certified PCC (Professional Certified Coach) via the International Coach Federation (ICF) since 2007. My passion is to help managers and employees develop in their work to create smoother, more enjoyable working days with both well-being and top-level productivity. The development areas that are in focus are leadership and time management.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.internova.se","https:\/\/x.com\/UllaLilliehook"]}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11053","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11053"}],"version-history":[{"count":29,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11053\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11099,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11053\/revisions\/11099"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11053"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11053"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.internova.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11053"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
