Nathan Simmonds:
Welcome to Sticky Interviews. I’m Nathan Simmonds, Senior Leadership Coach and Trainer for MBM, Making Business Matter, the home of Sticky Learning. We are the provider of leadership development and soft skills training to the grocery and manufacturing industry. The idea of these interviews is to share great ideas, great concepts, and great ways these skills are being used to help you be the best version of you in the work that you do. Welcome to the show.
Nathan Simmonds:
Today I am speaking with an interesting, exceptional, and very focused individual. I’ve seen some of his posts on LinkedIn, I’ve seen the interviews on the BBC News, and I had to reach out and have a conversation with this gentleman about his work, what he’s doing right now in the midst of COVID-19, if we’re in the middle of it, the beginning of it, the end of it, I have no idea.
Nathan Simmonds:
With the stresses that the services, our national services are experiencing, Oliver stepped up in this, pivoted with his business idea, and he’s supporting them with fresh fruit and vegetables, and providing this to NHS workers because they’re under so much stress they’re not able to think and make healthy decisions about what they’re doing in their grocery shopping. He’s stepping in with a charity organization that makes this happen for them at their doorstep, delivering them fresh fruit and vegetables at the hospitals, at source, at location to help them so they can focus their thinking onto the most important task, which is making sure people live. I don’t think I can be any more explicit about that, to be honest, Oliver.
Oliver Bailey:
No, that’s pretty good.
Nathan Simmonds:
I said this before, and I was going to say it again, from me, and from everyone already you’re helping no doubt you’re getting loads of thanks for this, I want to say thank you from us, from everyone else that you’ve touched. You’re doing incredible work. Please, explain why you do what you do, what you’re doing in probably a clearer way than I could ever imagine to.
Oliver Bailey:
Well, I appreciate your support on this, Nathan, and anyone
