Everyone wants cheap, reliable and environmentally friendly power. Global power demand is expected to increase by 67% by 2040. This is fuelled by the switch from oil-based transport to electricity propelled transport. Wood Mackenzie have recently reported over the last five years solar power has fallen by 54% and wind by 29%. Whilst solar and wind are cheaper than gas; they do different things in balancing supply and demand. Interestingly, with the rapidly falling price of batteries stored renewable energy has the potential to displace gas generated electricity but it is unlikely in the foreseeable future to replace gas for city heating or for cooking.

Despite distraction from children and families, most workers have put in well beyond their eight hours a day. When you allow for zoom meetings and mobile phone calls our private lives of lost the slither of anonymity they once had.   Somehow, meetings are taking longer, I guess because people seek interaction and the systems clearly working slower. In this new world we need to manage the balance between being a good professional and personal well-being. Like so many I used to wake early and goes the local gym come home have breakfast and go to the office. I am feeling guilty about taking time out to go for a walk, read an article at night go to meditation (online of course) spend time just talking to my wife. I suspect as we work our way back to the new norm, we will need to develop some personal space. Over recent years I have accepted Saturday calls...

Covid 19 has proved to be the seminal disruptor. Historically, when businesses undertake a dramatic change is normally instigated from the top and planned. Walking into the post Covid 19 world business will have changed and our most valuable asset, our people, will have new experiences.   Commentators are telling us we will emerge from hibernation, having missed the dramatic change that has occurred in how we do business. Our fears of not trusting staff, unless we can see them, have dissipated. Employees belief in most employers has gone as even the professional services firms cut salaries and conditions.

It is now the new norm. The worrying thing is that we are now even more contactable and for most of us there for working longer hours.   We can expect to see the role of board...
