My focus is on shaping a culture that can be a great place to work and a place where you can be your true self every day. By creating an environment of transparency, honesty, empathy and passion we can fulfil our ambitious vision of creating a world where small businesses can be successful in doing what they love.

If we as a whole can shape the right culture then it will allow us to meet this vision and be a pioneer in our industry. It comes down to having honest conversations, having an environment where voices can be heard, where people go the extra mile for each other and where we all push ourselves to be better every day.

So this is the majority of my work, being part of creating the strategy, understanding our people, figuring out how we can nudge & shape the culture to get to where we need to go and making sure that we all enjoy the ride along the way.
