08:30 We all have been through a lot the last couple of years. We need things that unite us and uplift all of us. We have more in common than what divides us. We all want to be happy. We want that for ourselves and our children.

30:40 H30: Health and Happiness in Hospitality and in all other organizations. Because we spend so many hours at work. Let’s make it a good place to be.

32:12 Employee satisfaction is directly correlated to high turnover which is very costly. If we take care of our people in companies, employees are more loyal but also become ambassadors. They attract new people.

33:28 Why we should use the Personal Health Check more in schools and universities and help each other in area’s were we are not in a good place at the moment.
