Are companies seeking a candidate that doesn't exist? At the World Hydrogen Summit in Rotterdam yesterday the panel discussion on "Careers Combatting Climate Change: Challenges and Opportunities in the Hydrogen Sector" sparked some compelling insights and highlighted the challenges and opportunities in building human capabilities for the Hydrogen Economy. While it is true that the hydrogen sector is rapidly evolving, demanding a mindset of continuous learning and adaptability, there are ways of bridging the disparity between existing skill sets and the evolving needs of the hydrogen market. Transitioning from conventional energy requires strategic navigation, but achievements in conventional energy aren't obsolete and they are instead often seen as transferable assets. Recognising and articulating the transferable nature of these achievements can redefine one's career narrative in the clean energy realm. As we embark on this transformative journey, let us remain committed to bridging the gap between existing skill sets and the evolving needs of the hydrogen market, ensuring that together, we build a brighter and more sustainable future.

🙌🌿 I am beyond grateful and proud to be a part of the #Koalisation family! Our shared belief in the value of synergy and collaboration fuels our commitment to creating a positive impact on communities and the environment. As we recently gathered in Hillcrest, Ndola, for the Stakeholders Engagement Meeting, it became evident that our vision resonates with tribal institutions, government officials, and community leaders alike. As we continue our journey, harnessing the potential of #carboncredits and engaging with Africa's diverse #indigenouscommunity, we stand united in our commitment to build sustainable communities that thrive and coexist harmoniously with nature. Let's embrace the spirit of unity and cooperation as we work together to make a lasting impact. I am honored to be part of this incredible journey, and I can't wait to witness the positive change we will create, one step at a time. #SustainableImpact #EnvironmentalStewardship #climatechange #climateaction 🌿🌏🤝

Proud Luiss Guido Carli University alumna moment: LUISS is again the top non-state university in Italy according to the CENSIS ranking, the country's leading socio-economic research institute. The University has achieved this position for the fourth consecutive year in its category, and it has secured the top spot among all non-state universities, with a score of 91.4.

Proud to be part of the all female Spencer Stuart team organising the Energy transition conference alongside the Cambridge university energy network. Looking forward to a day of talks and reflections on decarbonising today for a better tomorrow!

Hydrogen is the lightest, simplest and most abundant chemical element in the universe. It has enormous potential to provide a reliable and clean source of fuel and heat for our homes, transport and industry. Join us at the Cambridge University Network Conference this year for a special panel discussion on the role that #hydrogen could play in our energy sector as we aim for #netzero by 2050 and the implications this has on all parts of the economy – investors, energy majors, renewable energy companies and the supply chain. Thanks Oliver Bishop for being part of the conversation! Spencer Stuart Katy Jarratt Katharine Ward Alice Wyatt

Heartbreaking scenes from my home country. As devastating floods in Italy claim lives and leave thousands homeless, we cannot afford to ignore these climate catastrophes any longer. We need urgent climate action to protect people, businesses and homes!

Very excited for the upcoming Annual Energy Conference that Spencer Stuart is sponsoring and organising with the Cambridge University Energy Network. #Energy transition is front and center in the fight for a sustainable future and many bright people are working very hard on many different aspects of the problem. This is a moment to take stock of what is happening, share ideas and build new ones. Thanks to Lord Browne, who has agreed to be the keynote speaker at the conference this year, together with many other inspiring #leaders who will be sharing their views and perspectives on clean energy investments, the role of hydrogen in the energy transition, decarbonisation of transport and fuels and much more. More to come in the upcoming days.

Excited to be here at the #FTCommodities Global Summit in Lausanne, alongside a number of Spencer Stuart colleagues. Seb Stoove Rowen Bainbridge Katy Jarratt Min (Christina) Zhu Alastair Rolfe   Day 1 explored the geopolitical drama that continues to unfold around us. The ongoing impact of war in Europe took centre stage, with a sanctions regime that has pushed up costs and created enormous complexity and disruption, resulting in significant de-risking and a general shift towards security of supply over efficiency.   The risk of litigation and fines has made it harder to get banking support, added to which there is a lot of 'self-sanction'. Traders are being cautious as there is huge reputational loss in getting it wrong. As one panellist put it "regulators have created a monster they cannot control".   H. E. Nicolas Kazadi, Minister of Finance for the Democratic Republic of Congo, talked about the need for "more balanced partnerships" and the country's strategic objective to build a full battery supply chain. Top of his agenda is local transformation to reduce poverty, which means adding value within Congo versus just increasing volume.   The day ended with a discussion of critical minerals, the energy transition and growing resource nationalism. Copper will continue to prove its value, although the current price does not reflect the anticipated shortage.   Looking forward to a full day ahead, culminating with Mark Cutifani speaking at the Summit Dinner tonight.

Excited to be part of this, at this unique point in time where we see rising concerns over energy security and supply chains and now that the era of frictionless global trade is clearly over. So many interesting topics to discuss: how can business models adapt to the new market realities and what new patterns and trade relationships are emerging? (Even more) after Feb 2022, how has the industry had to change its approach to risk management? The world is tipping towards recession, fueled in part by high energy prices. Demand for fossil fuels is strong, keeping energy prices high, but investment in the sector is very low by historical standards. Will the macro-economic pressures outweigh the supply constraints?   #ftcommodities
