Privileged to have a tour of the @BristolBears HPC and to sit in on a Monday all-hands meeting. Seeing the supportive culture that the team have created was really impressive and the facilities are next level! Thank you 🙏🏼 🐻

This is one of my favourite photos of all time. The late Sion Milosky with his daughter having the time of their life. I used this photo recently in a leadership talk. It's the leaders responsibility to: Stay fit yourself Be focussed Support Horizon scan Keep them safe...

So incredible seeing the Northern Lights for the first time. Something magical, celestial and stirring from such natural beauty. I’ve fallen in love with Finland

Really great to open up access for sustainable transport solutions. We really really need to open up @PilningStation with @sgloscouncil to help our employees travel to work and provide an alternative for all the visitors to the region including The Wave, Bristol Zoo, The Bristol Golf course and the endless stream of traffic going to Severnside employment region. Comparatively low hanging fruit with huge impact to us all…

Fields of dreams are best shared. But every now and then, it’s good to connect alone and reflect.
