The future is not fixed, it’s our responsibility to explore the possibilities.

Coach, strategist and partner at We Are BPG.

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, you are unlikely to step up and take responsibility for making it so.

Tomorrow we launch something we've been working on for over a year...

🏔 Summit.

[Steadfast Collective @steadfast_uk]

Many of your favourite brands are businesses run by people who don’t identify as entrepreneurs or even business owners. They’re designers, team leaders, engineers, builders or whatever their trade may be. We call them unexpected entrepreneurs. https://t.co/nGsixKOjAs

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

“As the election results were rolling earlier, Boris Johnson was sitting with a class of children at Field End School in Ruislip, colouring pictures…”

A totally brilliant line 😅

I’m taking a break from North Point’s 5 Day Challenge to be with the @steadfast_uk team here at @tedxwinchester

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

“Transformation” is one of those words that has become very over-used - but how many times do you imaging transformation being about something new, something totally different?

Shell bought Russian oil at the biggest discount in recorded history at the same time the price you pay at their pump is rising at the fastest rate ever

A new low from a company that already sets a pretty low bar.

When we get our EV back, I’ll also be choosing not to use the New Motion/Shell Recharge brand either.

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

Dear @Shell_UKLtd. We all have choices in life.

You chose to buy oil from Russia after their illegal invasion of Ukraine. I chose to drive an extra 5 minutes past two shell garages to buy petrol from a different supplier.

Something I'll be doing from now on.

This remains an incredible speech, both for the content but also the context: https://t.co/z37PlUpCPF

Why we would then investigate heat solutions (such as hydrogen) other than for political reasons or the gain of the few, is beyond me.

This cannot be in our collective short term, or long term interests. 4/4

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

Electricity is the lingua-franca of energy.

Heat (typically fossil-fuelled) is converted to motion, which is converted to electricity. 1/4

[Stephen Cross @artfulbadger]

Modern energy production should be a democratising force, giving us all access to a primary building block of 21st century life (for most of the world’s population) without undue reliance on others. 3/4
