My head is spinning this week with impressions from news and work 🌪️ Here’s what caught my eye and my thoughts on moving forward in these challenging times:
🔵 I saw Margrethe Vestager’s interview on Danish television this week about US tariffs and the current trade war. She highlighted how the US has historically exercised significant soft power, economic power, and military strength while maintaining a broad network of allies worldwide. However, all these aspects are currently being put on the line.
Her words on #softpower, a network of allies and friends resonate with me. Helping my clients build a community of trusted allies in the #energytransition is my top priority.
🟡 Working towards a network of allies as a foreigner living abroad isn’t easy. While I’m grateful to live in Denmark and connect through Danish media with local professionals, many internationals here struggle. Last Week in Denmark captured this perfectly in their latest issue on #TheForgottenGold : highly educated internationals who came to Denmark full of promise, only to find themselves invisible. This hashtag resonated with many in our international community, myself included.
🟢 Soft power and #economicpower go together this week at WindEurope taking place in Copenhagen. Though I’m not attending this week, I’ve been following closely online. From visitor reactions and exhibitor reports, one message stands clear: collaboration is key to driving the energy transition forward. The developments are promising, but significant challenges remain ahead.
🟠 Another example of building networks of allies is the 4TU Centre for Energy Community Day held last week, on which I’m currently publishing the report. This annual event brought together around 70 researchers, innovators, and experts to connect, explore collaborations, and strengthen their community.
🟣 The way forward in these challenging times is clear: leverage #softskills – empathy, active listening, thoughtful questions – to build networks of allies and friends. These connections aren’t just personally rewarding; they’re the foundation upon which economic power and #businesssuccess are built.
⚪ What the future holds remains uncertain, but I’m already planning to visit HUSUM WIND the wind energy fair in September.
How has your week been in these turbulent times? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
