Motivation letter Oslo, May 27th, 2021 Dear ESGO colleagues, I am writing to express my great interest in running for ESGO council. As an active member of the society for many years, I have enjoyed taking part in various meetings and educational activities both in-person and online, benefiting from the hard work and dedication of the ESGO leadership. To be a part of this leadership team would be very rewarding and a great honor. I currently have the privilege of holding the position of social media editor for the International Journal of Gynecological Cancer. In this role I have worked closely with editor in chief, Pedro Ramirez, and learned a great deal from him regarding academic leadership. I have initiated a virtual journal club, mentored editorial fellows and been able to grow the journals social media followers on Twitter from ca 100 to more than 3000 in two years. Through this experience I have also very much enjoyed collaborating with the ESGO office, and my fellow associate editors from ESGO. As a gynecologic oncologist at the Norwegian Radiumhospital my main focus is surgical treatment of gynecologic malignancies, both robotic surgery and radical cytoreductive procedures. Since my return from fellowship at MSKCC in 2015 I have taken on the lead of our Endometrial cancer and gyn sarcoma team, have been responsible for organizing the annual Tropé meeting on updates and controversies in gynecologic oncology with professor emeritus Claes Tropé, and more recently initiated a course in ovarian cancer surgery, this year in conjunction with ESGO. Thank you for the opportunity to apply for ESGO council.
