The glue of society 
There are just a few elementary forces that hold our world together. The one that’s the glue of society is called trust. Allowing people to live and work together. Organizations and communities to thrive. Businesses to create value. And nations and the international community to stay out of conflicts and solve great challenges. Trust is the building block for any relationship without which the foundation will always remain shaky.  
Committed to the energy transition 
It`s our energy industry´s role to design, build and shape the sustainable energy future. We need to respond to the big questions of our time in a manner that boost long term trust. From international diplomacy. From investors. From the young generations. But how? The energy industry aims to meet the toughest global hurdles with business solutions, commitments and genuine willingness to act. By being transparent. Proving ourselves reliable. And through caring for the development of mankind. 
Creating flexible work solutions 
Human progress has always relied on co-operation between people. Over the last years we have seen great changes in the way we work and interact. More remote. More digital. Finding new paths for relationships to flourish, push for growth and creativity while being apart. The digital revolution represents a great shift in trust, and in tech we trust for now. But what will it take to keep it that way? How will it affect human trust? We as workers and leaders are being challenged. The workplace as we knew it is transforming. We need to adapt to new realities - both in attitude and skills. Changes that require trust. 
Re-building global collaborations
These are times where the global community is re-establishing and finding new paths. What will the geopolitical repositioning look like; which alliances will emerge and who will rely on who? How has the pandemic altered economics, international collaborations and energy markets? Which opportunities arise and how will energy investors respond?
