"I’ve had so much positive feedback from across the business about Stephens chat yesterday. His rawness & authenticity has been the breath of fresh air that we’ve been needing for a long time. So many people I’ve spoken to feel massively inspired after hearing him talk through his career & mental health journey and he’s given us all food for thought on ways we can improve the way we work & our culture. I even had the CEO quoting him verbatim at the pub afterwards which I would have never expected from her before the event! So a huge, huge thank you to Stephen for coming to see us and being just so bloody great" - Laura, Paddy Power
