Today Codie Sanchez made my email. You choose your hard... so please don’t complain. I’ve been in both, and I’m still deciding what to do next. I take my time, with no rush.

Yesterday a few of you came with a question… If we prefer a good narrative to the truth, does it apply to PPPs? Absolutely. PPP includes the words Private and Public. This is meat for bored politicians and newspapers. You have conflicting words… Add Partnership and journalists queue to hit you in the face. No matter what statistics say. No matter how many successful projects have been delivered through a PPP. No matter the risk profiles, the alignment of the parties, the governance… that PPP...
You know that many people are terrified of flying. However, they have no problem travelling by car, even though we all know that, statistically, planes are much safer than cars. Well… welcome to the base rate neglect. Our brain ignoring boring statistics and overvaluing vivid stories. That’s it. We constantly hear statistics about road accidents. But… When there is an aviation tragedy… well… you know what happens. Vivid memories. We like to believe we are purely rational beings making...
