About Robert J Bell

Varied career owning, leading, consulting and building businesses all over Europe; Asia and North America - spotting and dealing with black swans! It settles to this:Graydon Lloyd. www.graydonlloyd.comI have worked with some brilliant teams for superb organisations in over 30 countries worldwide. This has been a zig zag of a journey that reflects business realities more than any straight line can describe. These days, for clients, I draw from these travels and experiences to explore and describe the future to develop scenarios and map ways to get there. Graydon Lloyd is a vehicle – with a global network of associates to draw from – offering insight and support as needed. Recent projects with Costain, UK Department for Transport and Cabinet Office have focussed a range of current logistics challenges with local and global supply.I am now on the Business Development team of KADME (Stavanger, Norway) - they do what it says on the tin - knowledge and data management expertise. Transitional & Transformational ApproachThis is a thought leadership project. Covid has exposed the Just-in-Time and Better, Cheaper, Faster focus of International business as underpinning serious supply chain vulnerabilities. No longer is it possible to assume that all business models will converge to one best way. There has to be scope for diversity. A Transitional (WHAT needs to be done to take regions, sectors and firms into a sustainable future ahead of 2050) and, Transformational (HOW to make things happen). In Logistics and Supply chain terms developing markets need a transitional and transformational perspective to rethink value streams (inclusive and circular) rather than orthodox supply (what about demand and needs) chain (pejorative in Africa) thinking and practice. Currently, this is expressed in talks and workshops in firms and universities. A book is in the pipeline – drawing from and inspired by working in places and with people who make things happen.
