We know that we all have a strong affinity to place. Where you were born, went to school, your first job, your first rugby game. As a young person you idolised those that went on to play for Wales. These emotional connections are not easily transferable. @WelshRugbyUnion

This is not a politically partisan point but the UK government has been devoid of effective leadership across all parties for too long. This must change soon, things are getting desperate and potentially irreversible. πŸ™πŸ€ž

You don’t watch minds like Rory Sutherland on a podcast. You join them for dinner. Last month, Helm members joined Rory Sutherland for a private, off-the-record evening. No slides, just rare thinking on human behaviour and brands. This is what Helm membership looks like.
