Following my revelation that Clive Mather, head of Shell Canada, will be the special guest at an Evangelical Alliance evening on valuing trust, here's another executive who wants a word in your Shell-like.

For just £142 you can hear Jeroen van der Veer, chairman of Royal Dutch/Shell, speaking at the Energy Institute's autumn lunch.
