Sharing for Empowerment

TANGERANG, KalderaNews.com – The name Mette Roti Egli, a 2005 alumna of the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program at Swiss German University (SGU), is now making waves internationally.

Her contributions to developing circular solutions and decarbonization innovations in the waste management industry have earned her special recognition in the prestigious publication, Global Woman Leader.

This achievement stands as a testament to women’s emancipation in the world of technology and global leadership.

Currently, Mette holds the strategic position of Group Technology & Innovation Director at NG Nordic, a leading company in the Nordic region specializing in Total Waste Management solutions.

Under her visionary leadership, NG Nordic has successfully launched groundbreaking carbon-negative technology and created a revolutionary CO₂-based biodegradable plastic called INGA.

This innovation not only strengthens the company’s position in the global market but also underscores the crucial role of women in shaping a more sustainable future.

Prior to her pivotal role at NG Nordic, Mette built a remarkable global career at prominent multinational corporations such as ABB, Alstom, and General Electric (GE). Her extensive experience spans various critical positions in engineering, sales & tendering, project management, and even Managing Director. This has shaped her into a resilient, adaptable, and insightful leader with a deep understanding across diverse industrial sectors.

Mette’s career journey has not been without its challenges. She forged her path in an industry often dominated by men. A significant hurdle she faced was leading a large-scale restructuring process in Norway, which demanded a leadership style that was both firm and empathetic.

In her interview with Global Woman Leader, Mette stated, “Many doubted female leadership in this sector. But I chose not to prove it with words, but through tangible results and a commitment to sustainability and humanitarian values.”

Mette’s belief in the power of authenticity, the ability to listen, and building collaborations has been key to her success. She actively advocates for the importance of diversity and female representation in the fields of technology and clean energy, a spirit that resonates with the struggle of Indonesian women’s emancipation heroine, R.A. Kartini, in encouraging women to dream and achieve as high as possible.

Looking ahead, Mette Egli believes that the scarcity of raw materials will become a primary driver alongside emissions reduction targets. NG Nordic focuses on “pioneering circularity” by developing innovative solutions to maximize the value derived from waste, aligning with the growing industry trend towards a circular economy.

Mette acknowledges that the solid academic foundation she received from SGU played a central role in shaping her perspective on global business and industrial innovation.

The multicultural learning environment, the practical case study approach, and the guidance from competent lecturers provided her with invaluable tools that propelled her to the global leadership stage.

“We are immensely proud of the achievements of Mrs. Mette Roti Egli, who has now become one of the most influential sustainable technology leaders in Europe. She is a concrete example that Indonesian women are capable of making a significant global impact,” said Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dipl.-Ing. Samuel P. Kusumocahyo, Rector of Swiss German University.
