The European Chemical Industry has set out on an ambitious path to become carbon neutral. Germany, as one of the major chemical manufacturing nations, has committed to achieve this goal by 2050. But companies need to translate this industry vision into their specific context.
The goal of a CO2-neutral chemical industry in 2050 is comparable with a 30 year marathon – but at sprint speed. So we have to find the best route to this common goal. This is the conclusion of a conference organized by the Association for Chemistry and Economics (VCW), a sub-sector of the German Chemical Society (GDCh).
The consulting business has a new bandwagon: agility or agile management. Should the chemical industry jump on it or should we let it pass by?
Times are changing, and we are changing in them. An old saying that goes back to Ovid - but still true today. The business world has become more VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) than ever.
Many questions – few answers and a long and uncertain time line for the fog to lift from the new “Channel” between the UK and the EU27.
