Being a scientist, I had to check the math. Turns out it's even worse. You could have made $53,000 (£44,000) a day or $20 million per year since Jesus was born and still not make the profits Shell did in 2022.

Strategic Convergence: I’m sure someone wrote an interesting piece on this recently, but I can remember who. Any pointers? Was it you @JPCastlin?!
@JPCastlin Thanks for checking. That’s a whole lot of convergence! I’ve definitely read something of your on convergence that referenced Porter (& Mount Rushmore). I was sure someone had written about monitoring competitors more than target audience as the root cause. Rings any bells?
@JPCastlin You’re a legend. Thank you 🙏🏻 happy new year to you and yours by the way!
