Christer Sandahl - my mail address

Christer Sandahl, a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering from the prestigious Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, has had a distinguished career in product development across mechanics, electronics, and software.
At Sony Ericsson, he received the President's Award from Miles Flint for his work on mobile phone reuse. Christer observed that product development suffered due to poor scalability, lack of integration between technologies and departments, and ineffective development models.
To address these issues, he created Cpdm, a model designed to manage and simplify complexity in development processes
