Davos - Oil, People

by Chris Gilbey at 06:12AM (EST) on January 30, 2006 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

Here is something nice to start Monday with...... an article from CNN/Fortune about the views of George Soros and Bill Browder on the potential scenarios that could lead to further spikes in the price of oil.

From the fall of the house of Saud to Iraqi insurgents disrupting pipelines - none of the scenarios are outrageous.

Last night on the BBC World News channel there was a tremendous program hosted by Nik Gowing at Davos with leaders of countries, industries, companies - again from Davos - trying to establish what things should be on the agenda that are not. Key issue that came out was the need for mobility of labour. Demographics in Europe mean that there has to be a massive influx of non-anglo saxon people to provide basic labour as the native poplulations of the countries of Europe age. But this is not a vote winner domestically in each of the countries. Capital flows easily to where it can be used most profitably. People do not/can not.

Perceptric Forum

This Forum is where the partners in Perceptric Limited invite you to join us and explore issues that impact on business, consumers and communications.

Perceptric's mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations.

The essence of this mission is for us to be clear thinking about business and change. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.

Each of the partners in Perceptric has been extremely successful in their chosen field by working this way. More than theory we each know it works.

As a company we work with our clients in the United States, Asia and Pacific regions, including Australia, to maximize their opportunities in an ever accelerating change environment.
