Mementor is a family owned consultancy firm with focus on management support for improvements of complex organisations. Our mission is to contribute to the development of society through delivering support for improvement in organisations and services. We have a deep understanding of the challenges for complex organisations combined with extensive knowledge and experience of leading change.
Our capabilities range from performing analysis to managing processes of learning and improvement in organisations, and support leaders in these kinds of processes. Our knowledge base is within leadership, organizational development and process improvement – all which we believe are important components in managing complex organizations. We believe that traditional management methods, influenced by Taylorism, with a focus on mass production of products, are not enough in today’s knowledge and information society.
Who we are
Margareta Palmberg, MPH, is the owner of Mementor and work as senior consultant with a focus on leadership issues. Margareta has a robust and long background in healthcare management such as Director of Improvement at the Federation of Swedish County Councils and CEO of Astrid Lindgren´s Children’s Hospital at Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm.

Klara Palmberg, PhD, has a strong background in process- and quality management with experiences that combine management consultancy and research. As a consultant she is an experienced facilitator and project leader responsible for delivering results within complex organizations. Klara holds a M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering and Management and a Doctorial degree in Quality Technology and Management (read the thesis: “Beyond Process Management”). When needed, we work in a network of very skilled researchers and consultants with complimentary competences.
What we do
We are advisors with a deep understanding for the public sector and its challenges, with a broad knowledge and experience of organizational improvement, both in theory and practice. Mementor works in the intersection of interdisciplinary research and application, in network with others, to find, develop and spread vigorous ideas, knowledge and skills for improvement.
To create conditions where individuals and organizations improve and create desired results we offer a set of approaches:
Shared visions – that are built in interplay between actors, where it takes time for reflections and common arenas for discussion and conclusion.
Shared learning – to work in teams is necessary to solve complex issues. We have methods to support development towards desired results.
Mental models – individuals who learn and develop personally and as a group, supported by theories and knowledge, influence each other, and thereby the whole organisation’s frames of reference.
Systems thinking – it is in the interplay between the parts that results are achieved in complex systems. To be able to lead and act in these systems we need to train new skills, both as leaders and employees.
Individual insight and development – it is the individuals who create results. We work with approaches such as individual support through mentoring, coaching and career development to create the possibilities for individual improvements.
