In this episode of Flat Whites & Insights, Hans is joined by E, manager of the Tree Artisan Cafe in Oxford for a conversation whilst enjoying a cup of one of the cafe's delicious own blends.

They chat about the importance of connection, community and service within the hospitality industry and the joy and energy that they are proud to create. The conversation also reflects on E's career and the confidence they have gained within the speciality coffee environment.

Mentors, and the power and inspiration they can provide is a key theme as E gives insights into how feeling seen, trusted and valued has shifted their mindset and how they now aim to carry this forward within the team.

The episode ends with a discussion around the first Oxford Coffee Festival, which was held recently, and where Tree Artisan Cafe and E played their part.
