I first met Runa when she was the owner and manager of the wholesale Bergís. She managed her wholesale with great ambition and supplied quality products with good service. We are both members of FKA - The Icelandic Association of Women Entrepreneurs. Runa did not sit with empty hands when she sold Bergís, she founded this amazing web womenconnect.com. The web is modern, well produced and it creates a lot of possibilities. She is becoming more and more recognized abroad Iceland and now she has even grabed the attention of Oprah Winfrey.

By connecting with each other we create opportunities and Runa's web play's an important role in that field. Runa also provides consultancy service and that suits her well because she is a positive, giving and constructive person. Runa; Thank you for your contribution. Go Runa !

Hi Runa - thank you for a very nice morning session.  Your ideas will surely help me and my business to grow.  Simple things with a lot of effects.  I will refer to you when I´m asked about my success on the internet :)

Best regards, Rakel

Well I must tell you that Runa spent one day with us in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA and the Women Entrepreneurs in the city have not been the same since.  In a Think Ginormous, Ultimate, Global Networking Panel which Runa flew specifically from Iceland to participate in, she had us on our feet, laughing and inspired.  It is amazing to me that such a wonderful social network as Connected-Women comes out of such a tiny country.  It is amazing but not surprising because of Runa's, Think Ginormous attitude and her unqualified ability to Be Ginormous and  Global and extend her joy, love, inspiration and energy to all women who will accept it.

Continued propserity and blessings, Runa!

Your Techno Granny buddy, Joanne

Runa and me only met twice in person so far: in Helsinki (European Caoching Conference 2007) and later on in Reykjavik. What really impresses me is her generosity in sharing what she can and a rare capacity to express her appreciation. And of course, there is her enormous energy, plenty of energy!  Besides that you look very beautiful in your new picture on your page. Warmly, Pirkko

Pirkko, Written March 07 2008

Runa is quite amazing.

There is something in her. An energy, a vision and a wonderful passion.

Most of all she is a true mentor and someone whom I aspire to.

Keep going from Iceland.

Ég hitti Rúnu Magnúsdóttur á fundi nýlega og við ræddum markþjálfun og hvernig sú vinna fer fram. Hún gaf mér kost á að prófa að sjálf og með hennar hjálp fékk ég margar frábærar hugmyndir, fylltist innblæstri og aukinni orku. Ég sé margt skýrara hvað varðar starf mitt eftir þennan fund og er Rúnu mjög þakklát. Ég mæli með markþjálfun og þessum markþjálfa.

Ég sat nýlega námskeiðið „Konur og karlar sem leiðtogar og stjórnendur“ í Háskóla Íslands þar sem alveg sérstök áhersla var lögð á það hvað tengslanet eru mikilvæg í þeim tilgangi að hafa áhrif, sérstaklega fyrir konur. Að mynda svona tenglsanet  sem gerir okkur konum kleift að koma okkur á framfæri og kynnast því hvað aðrar konur hafa upp á að bjóða er því alveg ómetanlegt.

Takk Rúna fyrir frábært framtak!

Finally ! Here we go. I can make a recommendation! And I will. Runa is a real entrepreneur. She is a businesswoman in all sences. It is a pleasure to work with her, she shines of inspiration, challenge and if she gets a problem to solve... the day is made. She is a true rolemodell for me in working effectively and everything she takes on seems to be great fun. Any opportunity she makes bigger and enlarge. She has a fantastic way engaging anyone into her ideas. She is a master of enrollment. I wish her all luck in her newest career as an executive coach. Great to have you in my life!

Rúna is a powerful businesswoman, exceptionally creative, as this great webside shows. It is a plesure to work with her and she has a great sense of humour. She inspires me.

Rúna er kraftmikil athafnakona með endalausar hugmyndir og veigrar sér ekki við að hrinda þeim í framkvæmd, sbr. þessi frábæra vefsíða. Það er yndislegt að vinna með henni, hún er með góða nærveru og frábæran húmor.
