INDUSTRY LEADERS’ OUTLOOK 2023

It was the worst of times; it was the best of times

It was an age of foolish governmental policy and over-regulation; it was an age of improved capital discipline; it was an epoch of a pandemic; it was an epoch of entrepreneurial grit; it was a season of activists compelling companies to adopt social goals; it was a season to seize opportunities in decarbonization; it was the winter of despair in attracting new talent from universities; it was the spring of hope to develop and grow employee training and professional growth. Everything before us seemed to be against fossil fuels, yet collaboration and technology offered hope for the best of times to come.
