We have had a fantastic day full of joy, one of our core values, today. This morning: Learning that when we fall we can always get up, especially when we have team members around us - at the London ice rink. This afternoon: Finalised our Human Level 2023 Strategy. You can see the photo of us on the ice - still standing tall - on Linkedin. Thank you Maddie Wolberg, Ana Maria Uribe, Jodie Tang and Selwyn Coles for a wonderful day - with Malin Helgesen and our other Advisory Partners with us in spirit. You will find out more about our new strategy - which builds on our existing approach, but with some new elements that we think you will really like - soon.
