In a 2015 poll , 30% of Republicans and 19% of Democrats supported bombing Agrabah, the fictional hometown of the Disney character Aladdin. In a similar vein, a 2014 poll found that the less people knew about where Ukraine is located on a map, the more they wanted the U.S. to intervene militarily. To make matters worse, another study done by researchers at Ohio State University found that when confronted with scientific evidence that conflicted with their pre-existing views, such as the reality

I recently met with a very successful company that is seen as a highly innovative global pioneer that others in their industry, which is facing many structural headwinds and inevitable changes, look up to. They understood that even though they are seen as an extremely innovative company now, their current success is actually a result of innovations that happened a decade ago, and that to live up to their reputation, they now need to create the next wave of innovations to keep the company on thei

I am struggling with the Hydrogen Story. It is tough to relate to something where the realization may take 40 years to move from ambition to achievement.

Hydrogen is undoubtedly becoming the big agenda ticket within any Energy Transition.

Why good leadership is based on trust. Trust is, by definition, a gamble. Trusting is about taking risks – for a job to be done, for an agreement in good faith, for sharing information openly, for honesty and integrity in a relationship. It comes with the responsibility to deliver what one has been entrusted to deliver. Micro-managers don’t do trust, preferring instead to have work done in their own set ways.

More research showed that innovation culture is made of two components. Vertically, it’s the leader’s willingness to give employees autonomy and accept failure, and the employees’ willingness to take risk and do the right thing, even

You have weighed up all the options, written down the pros and cons, tossed and turned in your bed but still cannot decide.
