Just after Christmas, my great friend Mike O’Brien and I decided to record one of our usual weekly catch-ups! The brief was that I’d interview him and we need to try not to swear or go down too many esoteric rabbit holes!

We covered a bunch of stuff including:

- Starting up his own company and growing to over 120 employees at the start of 2021
- Anti sales culture
- Cat cafes and entrepreneurship
- The power of serendipity to grow business
- Being a good human in a competitive marketplace
- Building a good human culture and motivating a workforce during COVID19
- Maintaining the start-up feel in a scale-up
- Meeting while walking
- Being an authentic leader
