Do you know what a water cooler moment is? A water cooler moment is an occurrence that provokes widespread discussion amongst co-workers the next day.

Our BSO Colleague Matt Kenrick, took the opportunity to get to know more colleagues and encourage more workplace engagement by creating a water cooler moment. Matt decided to share his passion for gardening by encouraging BSO colleagues to grow and care for a tomato plant in one of our communal kitchens.

In a world of Hybrid working, it is clear there are many lost opportunities for new and existing staff to catch up and engage on a personal level. His amazingly simple gesture has created lots of chat, banter, and plenty of lovely tomatoes for office consumption.

Thank you, Matt, for your exceedingly kind gesture from all your colleagues…
