To begin 2026, I want to talk about something I’ve seen over and over again: Trust doesn’t break loudly. It frays quietly. And by the time most CEOs notice it, it’s already well underway. It rarely starts with a crisis or a bad quarter or a Board “talking to you”.
To open 2026, I want to speak to the truth that has shaped every season of my leadership: If it drains you, it’s misalignment. If it fuels you, it’s your path.
Here’s the truth: YOU are the reason clean power entered Boardrooms this year – and the reason they can feel different in 2026. As the year draws to a quiet close and the world starts to exhale, I’ve found myself reflecting not on the big moments — but on the small, behavioural ones.
It’s because of you that I’ve been able to fully step into this work in 2025 – and I thank you. As we approach the end of the year, I’ve been reflecting on what 2025 has meant — not just professionally, but personally, energetically, and in the very real lived experiences I’ve been invited into.
