My son has got like 17 side hustles.

And so they're like, no problem, right?

And if they took a job where it didn't allow them that freedom, they'd be like, what's going on here?

But giving someone a speakership opportunity or nurturing them as a speaker on behalf of your company and your story, and then giving them that path to do something different than just, oh, I work on the product, but now I get to talk about the product.

That's a new skill set.

That's a new thing for them to do within their career or within their job.

And so it expands and it gives them sort of, you know, ways to move into other things, you know, give people a chance to publish, right?

There's all these platforms, right?

LinkedIn, you know, one of the best platforms to give people a voice, become a subject matter expert, not just, which by the way, provides value back to the company.

But it also provides them an outlet for personal growth.

And I think that's really important.

And I love when people on my team or within Qualcomm, and we have some amazing, very smart inventors here at the company that have a gazillion patents and have invented some super cool technology.

that deserve to celebrate that and benefit from that emotionally and personally and even financially.

So I think that's the new world and that's the world that we live in.

And if companies are afraid of that, then they're not going to be a very desirable place to work.

I'm excited about so much right now.

Like I said earlier, we are diversifying.

Our technology has proven to be so pervasive and be applicable to so many different things.

So I'm excited about our robotics business and the growth of that.

I'm excited about the brand building that we've done and the storytelling we've done at the Qualcomm level, at the Snapdragon level.
