But I still managed, Matt, and you're going to roll your eyes and Leslie, sure, you might do too. But I still managed to actually come back for a day of work during that trip. And I think that sort of puts things into perspective that

It's all about balancing life and work at the moment here at SBR as we're looking to grow and scale into one of the biggest and best sales consultancies in the world. I think there's those sort of things that you need to do. But equally, I managed to have some fantastic time over in Spain, ate loads, drank every single day, which was a bit unfortunate because my wife obviously couldn't drink much.

But we had a wonderful time whilst balancing work and a lovely break together. So yeah, that's what's been going on in my life.

What do you mean by that in your context, Lesley? Thanks for the congratulations.

So interesting. Someone was bleating on LinkedIn, no offence to those that do that, but they were talking about a four-day week and how powerful it is. And my point was, well, you can do a four- or five-day week, but actually it's the flexy part. I think what you call harmony, I absolutely advocate that work-life harmony piece.

My wife's Irish, as you know, Matt, and Leslie, you'd probably know this being Irish. Her point is, if I can't do it, then at least one of us has to do it. So she's all for me drinking beers.

Oh, brilliant. I completely advocate the trust piece as the key pillar. It's a bit like Maslow's hierarchy. You need to support the bottom foundation before you can go to the next stage. But the way you've talked about that, how your CRO put you into a position to produce the trust, then the productive conflict, I think that's something that's missing.

So thank you for sharing that you need a sort of environment to test case it. And how long was it in the States? How long were you together?

And this is why we love speaking to people like yourself and yourself, Leslie, because I think, you know, what are we? Do you mean it's into the conversation? You just dropped multiple golden nuggets for people to listen to. Even for me, I am taking that idea and we're going to have a go at that.

Reminds me of the, again, I'm being really unfair here, but you know, chap in IT turns up to the Christmas party, has a couple of drinks. My God, what are they doing on the dance floor? Shirt off, tie around the head. Crazy. Get back to work, sitting behind the desk. But no.
