Imagining something new, and developing plans to make it happen.

What’s your favourite thing to do for your own well being?
Cycling. Get a bike!
Why do you think it’s important to attend networking events?
There’s so much to learn from others. Networking is how you borrow or conceive brilliant ideas to take back to the office.
