#XrisLogbook 140 - Unity as Strategy in Times of Turmoil 🇬🇧

👍🏻 Rugby taught me a key leadership principle: collective play beats individual effort. In business, as in sport, the real win comes from helping your team succeed without expecting anything in return. 🏉

👎🏻 The signs of turbulence are everywhere: strikes and a wave of HNWIs exiting the UK; social unrest and a fifth government in France in 2 years; Russian drones breaching Poland’s skies; across Europe, the foundations of democracy feel challenged at their very roots. 🇪🇺

✍🏻 Despite Brexit being sold as a way to curb immigration, the UK now employs more foreign workers than before. Non-EU employment rose from 3.1m in 2016 to 3.9m in 2022, and migrants now hold about 20% of UK jobs, up from 12% a decade ago. The paradox: Brexit ended free movement for EU citizens, but overall migrant labour increased, just with a shift from EU to non-EU workers. 🇬🇧
