Because we don't slash for efficiency. We build for innovation, resilience, growth. Instilling agility, embedding better, happier ways of working. Changing businesses inside out, human first. So that when you're asked "When did you last get a proper buzz out of work?" The answer is "I do."

At 7 years old, Sonny Pike was featured in his local paper for scoring 80 goals in a season. By 10 he was on London tonight and by 12 he was doing too much media work to go to school.

Sonny was literally the coco-cola kid but the media hyped him up so much that it went past his football and unfortunately it never caught up and he lost his love for the game.

With his story coming out via his autobiography this year, we speak to Sonny about how he life changed and what's he's doing now to protect the next generation.
