Find where you thrive

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. 💜

NFU Mutual wins Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award for 11th consecutive year. The Award is given to businesses with the most engaged workplace cultures in the world, where employees feel valued, heard, and equipped to do their best work. NFU Mutual is just one of a handful of businesses worldwide - and the only UK-based employer - to have won the Exceptional Workplace Award for more than 10 years. Gallup's research is based on the most comprehensive workplace study ever conducted, taking into account team engagement and performance of employees at almost 250 organisations across 9 countries. Kenny Graves, HR Director at NFU Mutual, explains that an empowered and engaged workforce is central to the insurer's strategic ambitions: "NFU Mutual's track record of providing excellent personal, local service, is down to the fact that our employees and everyone in our Agency Network truly care about their customers. That's why we've made being a great place to work one of our three strategic objectives, and engagement is a key part of this. "We're delighted to be the only company in the UK to have received the Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award eleven years in a row, and we will continue to support our staff to keep the streak going in 2027.

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.

For Carer’s Week, our We Care Network at Virgin Media O2 hosted a series of engaging in‑person and virtual events for employees at our Paddington office. From essential legal and financial advice to a powerful panel featuring employee carers, the partnership with care experts, KareHero and award‑winning consultant Charlie Beswick, the week focused on real support for working carers. Our We Care Network co-chair Natalie Marnell tells us about her carer experience and how seeing an advert internally inspired her to take up the role. 🎥 Hear more from Natalie about the importance of building a community.

Celebrating identity, inclusion and allyship this Pride Month This Pride Month, we’ve been proud to bring colleagues together for a panel event — creating space for open, honest conversations about identity, inclusion and allyship. At the heart of this is our Pride Family — one of our employee-led communities. The panel brought together colleagues from across the business to share their lived experiences of being part of the LGBTQIA+ community, alongside those showing up as allies. From personal journeys to reflections on how attitudes have changed, it’s about learning from each other and continuing to move the conversation forward. We know inclusion doesn’t happen through one event alone — it’s built through communities like Pride Family, through everyday actions, and through creating a culture where people feel safe, respected and able to be themselves. Whether it’s sharing your story, listening to others, or being a visible ally, it all adds up to something that really matters. Let’s keep the conversation going.

Hi, I'm Alex . Stephanie and I are married, both work at Zoonou, and have been navigating life with MS together since our early twenties. For a long time, I didn't even think of myself as a carer. I just saw us facing life's challenges together. For Carers Week, I wanted to share some of my experience. It's a personal piece about balancing caring responsibilities with work, learning to ask for support, and recognising that carers need support too. I hope sharing my experience helps start more conversations about caring and the support carers need.

"It's like our name is on the door, and we have to make it a little cosier every day." That was one of the responses when we asked our employee-owners what "owning it" means to them. Last Friday was Employee Ownership Day, and hearing the different perspectives from across the team was a reminder that ownership is about much more than shares. It's about responsibility. Pride. Having a voice and working towards something together. We're super proud to be employee-owned - here's what owning it means to the people behind Zoonou. #EmployeeOwned #OwningIt #EODay Video description: A montage celebrating Employee Ownership Day. The video opens with sweeping views of Eastbourne and the coastline from Beachy Head before the Employee Ownership Day logo appears. Employee-owners speak directly to camera about what ownership means to them. Their interviews are interspersed with footage from a Zoonou away day, showing colleagues presenting, collaborating, sharing ideas, chatting in groups, and enjoying time together. The mood is positive, proud, and community-focused. The video ends with the Zoonou logo and the "Proudly Employee Owned" logo.

Meet Heather 👋 Principal Consultant and Co-Lead of ForcesNet - our Employee Connection Group built to supporting our military and public services communities. Heather found a renewed sense of purpose when she joined BAE Systems by supporting others through transition and building a strong sense of community, on top of a meaningful career that's still connected to the armed forces. "My military backgrounds continues to shape how I work today. It's the transferable skills that stand out: leadership, decision-making under pressure, adaptability and stakeholder management.''

Some of the most important skills are harder to measure: judgement, resilience, collaboration and the ability to lead.  Rachel Ellison’s career is a great example of how the combination of these skills is needed to deliver real impact.  Her journey has taken her from military training to civil engineering and project delivery, then into operational leadership at scale. What stands out throughout is her ability to connect people, priorities and purpose: https://mottm.ac/4b5N7i6
