Dazed and Confused: Where next for UK plc on the global stage? Jericho Conversations with Nick Baird


Listen Later

In case you missed it, we recently interviewed Nick Baird, as part of our Jericho Conversations series.

We explored Britain's evolving role in global affairs, examining its past, present, and future trajectory. If, in 1946 Britain had lost an empire but was yet to find a role, things are now even more complex for a medium-sized nation trying to go it alone in a very volatile world. 

Nick drew from his rich experience as Chair of the Trade Remedies Authority, former UK Ambassador to Turkey, and Chief Executive Officer of UK Trade & Investment. Jericho Partner Matthew Gwyther asked Nick to share his unique insights into the complex narratives surrounding Britain's foreign policy, exploring how historical perspectives have shaped its contemporary role on the world stage.

Jericho Conversations is one of a number of initiatives that spontaneously emerged during the first COVID lockdown – part of a determination to use moments of crisis to pivot towards a better, fairer, more equitable and sustainable future for all. By popular demand, we have reignited the series to help find surprising and refreshing solutions and insights into a world in constant flux. Each conversation – led by an expert speaker – is designed to keep Jericho communities engaged and thinking about “what comes next?” for business and society.
