On the roads
It is a very dreadful mistake. Indeed, the likes of Mahatma Gandhi, George Washington or Lech Wałęsa were earth-shattering leaders who won the hearts of their nations when zeitgeist struck. But so were the worst geno-cide inspirers in the history of humankind – they seized the will of others selling the hope that a future without certain people would be better. It happened throughout the blood-bath of the 20th century again and again. A leader’s power is therefore measured in his or her ability to attract other minds, be it by the means of true virtue, a Machiavellian lion and fox virtù, or simply fear and terror provided by firearms and security forces. In the end, lead-ership is a shapeless form if lacking the moral vocabulary inside it.
Awaiting a leader is perhaps also a treach-erous thing to do. What if nobody comes and lifts us to reach our full potential? Prob-ably the slow reflex saviour is to blame. Well, believing in it won’t get us far either. One of my favourite quotes from Confucius reads, “[…] Wishing to order well their states, they first regulated their families. Wishing to regu-late their families, they first cultivated their persons. Wishing to cultivate their persons, they first rectified their hearts. Wishing to rectify their hearts, they first sought to be
sincere in their thoughts […].” Leadership must come from the inside.
I, personally, do not believe in leaders, maybe because we are too often bombarded with wannabes by the media, while in truth we either have not encountered a true leader in person or failed to recognize one in time. We have all gone through it – a given politician or a trendsetter is seen as the person who will blow our minds with visions and recipes for a new and better world, but then it turns out that e.g. one president is sneaking out of his office for a rendez-vous, while an ardent moralist and faith-ful husband is surfing a website created to cheat on his spouse. “They’re just humans, have draw-backs and times of weakness,” one could retort. That’s all right, but they’ve pictured themselves in the first instance as leaders – politically, mor-ally, just name it – and had the nerve to dictate how others should be governing their lives, at the same time doing the opposite themselves. One can grow bitter and insensitive when look-ing at a parade of such individuals.
Yet, I believe in setting a good example (as talk is cheap), which is a genuine end in itself, also “marketed” by itself with hope, not force, that it may spur similar behaviour. The humble, every day, goodwill leadership is what is cast-ing the leading light. �
For some time on now, one has quite often heard that we are in urgent need of leadership. When it comes to com-bating climate change, reinventing
social systems to axe down inequality in the wake of the economic crisis and its negative fallout, pushing towards renewable energy sources, assigning more money and brains to breakthrough innovations, embarking on a mis-sion to Mars, etc.; everyone seems to be waiting for another Alexander the Great, a person who will boldly enter the stage and slash his or her way through outdated habits and mindsets with a powerful all-changing blow.
Therefore, a leader is also an apostle of hope. Not only is a better future somewhere out there, but can be reached as easily as pick-ing an apple from a tree. The immortal “Yes, we can!” from Barack Obama’s first presidential campaign is maybe the best example from modern times of the hope that leadership entails. It gave Obama the seat in the White House and as a result has brought about some meaningful domestic changes like the Afford-able Care Act or same-sex marriage, but totally failed on the international scene.
However, we tend to ascribe positive con-notations to leadership such as true leaders being brave, far-sighting, caring, good, etc.

Future alternatives for logistics
Special
Embracing technologyby Przemysław Myszka
In itself technology is neither good nor bad, it’s about how and for what purpose we use it. This issue’s Special section touches upon many practical and positive applications of the latest technological advances throughout the transport and logistics industry. But we also talk with Gerd Leonhard, named by the Wall Street Journal as one of the leading media futurists in the world as well as by Wired as one of the Top 100 influencers in ICT in Europe, about the ongoing digital transformation and what changes and challenges it brings about for the humankind in general, and for ways goods are moved around in particular.
� Digital transformation is in full swing – the Internet of Things is growing, computing power is getting greater and greater, automation is grabbing a firm foothold, connectivity is the new oxygen, etc. What should we expect from this process in general?
Digital transformation can be viewed as a header for what is going from analogue to digital, from product to service and then from service to experience as well as for buying software instead of a product, e.g. like in the case of music nowadays, while cars are also becoming software packages on wheels, that’s what e.g. Tesla is doing.
These trends are happening in society, but in contrast to other major all-embracing transformations like e.g. the industrial rev-olution, today’s technology is exponential, meaning that we are at the point where something that was science fiction not too long ago, is today either possible or has already turned into reality. For instance, the paperless office is finally here, and cloud computing is a fact of life as well. Auto-matic translation is being introduced, too, with more or less two years before we can perfectly utilize it maybe not for sessions at the United Nations, but surely for everyday things like simple conversations, advertis-ing or videos.
All these trends are not only exponential, but also combinatorial. This means that we are not dealing with a single atom-like change, but rather with a web of changes, where a twitch sends pulses throughout the net. This in turn makes it hard for companies to catch them as they all take place at the same time – cognitive com-puters are teaching themselves, there are robotics, automation, artificial intelli-gence (AI), etc.; therefore, whether you’re running a transport and logistics busi-ness or are involved in energy or bank-ing, your ventures will be impacted by the digital transformation, presumably more and more.

The Baltic bulk market
Report
by Marek Błuś
Roughly calculating 2014’s volumes, dry bulk accounted for approx. 44% of goods carried by sea worldwide, meaning that unpacked cargo is the main commodity carried across the oceans and consequently – handled in ports. Moreover, it’s also the fastest growing; while total seaborne trade has grown by 38% since 2005, dry bulk has risen by 57%, outpacing second place liquids (an increase by only 15% to a share of 33%). Therefore, dry bulk is undoubtedly the freight king globally.
D igging into details, the sum of the three main dry bulks – iron ore, coal and grains – has been smaller than crude oil since the
early 1950s till 2007. But not until 2014 did the aggregate of the “Big Dry Trio” surpass the joint forces of crude oil and oil products, also for the first time since the 1950s. Such a change was partly pos-sible thanks to the stagnation in crude oil trade, f luctuating between 1.8 and 1.9 bln tn ever since 2004. Recently, the total sum of liquids has only grown due to oil prod-ucts, liquid gases and chemicals, neverthe-less, all together as well as each separate,
2014 (excl. transhipment), Baltic liquids accounted for more than 5% of world wet turnover, whereas dry bulk cut only 2.5% in its respective field. Additionally, the distance between the two categories is widening in the Baltic, liquids gaining some 16.5% over the last decade, while dry bulk – 12%.
The global and regional phenomena mainly stem from differences inherently rooted in industrial and “post-industrial” national economies. For instance, let’s look at coal imports in China and Den-mark. Regarding the first country, coal volumes rose 13 times from 25 mln tn in

liquids’ increases are slower than their dry competitors.
The subject?When it comes to the Baltic Sea region,
dry bulk seems to be at the opposite side, or at least have its own peculiari-ties, separating the area from global hap-penings to some extent. In the Baltic, dry bulk “enjoys” the lowest share of only 27%, while liquids champion our corner of the world with 39% (the rest being under general cargo’s belt). This means that while BSR harbours handled approx. 4.2% of global ports’ turnover in
The king?

Focus
FocusThe European rail & road freight
With the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris fast approaching, trans-port's impact on the environ-
ment will come increasingly under the spot-light. While transport overall is a contributing factor to global warming, rail off ers a sound environmental track record that is one of the convincing reasons for choosing rail-roads over other modes. For the whole of the EU, rail accounts only for 2% of total energy
consumption in transport measured in mln tn of oil equivalent (Mtoe), although it carries 17.8% of inland freight, according to Eurostat data for EU-28 in 2013 (excl. transport by pipe-lines). By comparison, road transport accounts for 82% of total Mtoe energy consumption in transport. As an example, the total energy consumption involved for the transport of 100 tn of freight from Lübeck to Bologna is three times higher when the goods are transported by road rather than rail (Fig. 1).
Likewise, specifi c CO2 emissions gener-ated by rail freight are almost four times more inferior to those generated by road freight, and they are even more than three times lower than those generated by inland waterways (Fig. 2).
On track towards a brighter future?
by Libor Lochman, CER Executive Director, and Pauline Bastidon, CER Policy Adviser Passenger & Freight
IKEA, Cadbury, Marks & Spencer, and Volvo: What do these household names have in common? They all use or have used rail freight in their logistics mix. Why have such companies decided to turn to rail? In the fi rst place because it is a particularly effi cient, attractive and eco-smart way of transporting high volumes of goods over relatively long distances. However, more eff ort is still needed for rail to capture a fairer freight market share in Europe, and this goes both for internal cooperation and R&D initiatives as well as more rail-friendly country- and EU-wide policies.

Editorial
5/2015 | Baltic Transport Journal | 3
T his issue of our journal welcomes all, I must admit, with an unusual cover of tracks cutting through a grain fi eld. Concerning the 5/15 edition this is to be taken both literally – as we have the Report part devoted to the bulk market where I would like to particularly draw your attention to the piece In good shape. Th e European
wheat market by APK-Inform Agency’s Inna Chernenko – as well as symbolically thanks to the Special section on future alternatives for logistics. It’s our fi rm belief that in order to win and keep our readers’ respect, we must cut through the transport and logistics industry from various angles, some of them not-so-obvious at fi rst glance. Th at’s why the opening interview with Gerd Leonhard is very much in our style. Indeed, it touches upon our core topics of how goods are moved around, but it does it in a completely diff erent way as Gerd is a Futurist, CEO of the Futures Agency, Host of the Future Show, and co-author of Th e Future of Business; therefore, his far-reaching views are so refreshing and set our activities in a completely new time dimension. However, it’s just the beginning! Th e BTJ Special also comprises articles on how soft ware-enhanced equipment can add to better terminal performance; on the imple-mentation of Intelligent Transport Systems in Europe; on ways 3D printing is changing the supply chain; as well as on how self-driving car fl eets can reinvent urban mobility, not to mention what a ro-pax of the future will look like. I found peeking at what the days to come have in store for us to be stimulating and we’ll defi nitely pay more attention to what lies ahead of us also in the forthcoming issues, you can bet on that. Moving to the Focus section, this time devoted to European rail & road freight, the Community of European Railway and Infrastructure Companies (CER) shares with us its thoughts on challenges today’s rail cargo transportation is facing, pinpointing i.a. shining examples of railroad renaissance as well as countries struggling with the opposite. On the road side we have a paper on the eHigh-way project, Siemens explaining how and why road freight should be electrifi ed. Staying on wheels, Ann Zunder gives insights into the Smartfusion project on how urban freight can grow wise by implementing smart and quite simple solutions without the need to rob a bank to fi nance the whole venture. Lastly, but equally important, I’m also in high spirits because of the
50 fi rst dates. Applying EU state aid law to ports and Lifting the game. Port performance & pro-ductivity articles. Not only because they are more than fi ne and in-depth pieces of writing, but also because their authors share our views on long-term win-win partnerships. I’m keeping my fi ngers crossed for them being again and again kissed by a muse so that we can deliver valu-able input to our readers in the issues of BTJ yet to leave the printing house.
Talking about cooperation, I’m also very content with the fi rst Harbours 360 Conference we helped to pull off under Baltic Press’ second brand Harbours Review hand-in-hand with our partners from Actia Forum during the two October days of 20-21 in Antwerp. It was especially delightful to hear in person from people who earlier have written articles for our journal or Harbours Review’s e-zines. Our authors can be pretty sure that we’ll contact them as next year’s conference approaches to spread their expertise even further.
In the meantime I wish you a pleasant reading!
