If you build it…

It is Monday January 13th 2025. I am launching a website and a blog with no idea where it might take me. All I know is I would regret not doing this.

  • I am not saying ‘Scandi good – British bad’, this is far more nuanced than that.
  • We are not comparing like-for-like poulations, economic models etc. However, don’t these statistics warrant discussion?
  • What can we learn from these happier, more productive economies?
  • How do they think about work?
  • What is important to them about it?
  • What does the UK do well that the Scandinavians could learn from?

This is the conversation I am going to start. Let’s go.
