Find where you thrive

Being able to be yourself in the workplace matters, and Kerry Hancock is a great example of that. Kerry joined Mott MacDonald two decades ago and has played a key role in shaping our culture. Earlier this year, she became managing director for advisory and programme delivery, while also championing our LGBTQIA+ community as sponsor of the Advance Network. Kerry believes that when we can all show up as we are, we collaborate better, think differently and deliver stronger outcomes for our clients. It's this commitment to inclusion, belonging and authentic leadership that helps make Mott MacDonald a place where people can build meaningful careers, make an impact and thrive as themselves.

Last week, colleagues across ASOS came together for our first-ever Big AF Walk in support of the ASOS Foundation 🎉 More than 115 colleagues took part across our London, Leavesden and Barnsley offices, challenging themselves to walk marathon and half-marathon distances while raising funds to help young people break down barriers and achieve amazing things. Despite 30-degree heat and not a cloud in sight, ASOSers showed remarkable resilience, encouragement and community spirit every step of the way. Together, they have raised over £12,000 and counting for the ASOS Foundation, helping fund programmes and partnerships that address some of the most critical barriers facing young people and creating opportunities for them to thrive. At ASOS, we believe in using our platform, people and partnerships to drive positive change. The Big AF Walk showed what’s possible when our colleagues come together to turn that belief into action, it was an opportunity for colleagues from across the business to connect, support one another and demonstrate the collective positive impact we can have. Together, we've taken thousands of steps towards creating positive futures for young people.

This week, Camunda People Team came together in Lisbon. 🇵🇹 One of our favourite discussions was around AI and the future of work. We challenged assumptions, explored what's changing, and talked about how AI is reshaping how we think about what's possible. Some of the best ideas came from simply getting everyone in the same room. But, as always, the moments between the meetings were just as valuable. Exploring the mountains of Sintra. Long dinners. Exploring Cascais. Remote work gives us incredible flexibility, but there's something truly magical about sharing the same space every once in a while. You leave with stronger relationships, fresh ideas, totally inspired, and excited for what’s next. 💜

One of the major challenges faced by Canopy customers is the correlation of their Canopy simulations to track data. Finding the right combination of car parameters to match apex speeds, ride heights, and end-of-straight speeds can be an exhausting manual process, but it's critical to getting the most out of simulation results. MOVEdot AI (YC F25) approached this problem by developing an agentic correlation workflow. They used their AI-driven agents to harness the power of Canopy Simulations and the Canopy API and build a process that can correlate a car - from start to finish - in hours, instead of days.
