Highlights:

“I remember having these conversations when my son was a teenager, and like any other teenager, they don't tell you anything at all. I found out when I took him somewhere, and we were driving in a car, I could ask all sorts of questions.” - 3:25 - Gary Gamp 

“I had a customer where, at the back of their office, there was a lake. When I turned up one day he said, ‘Do you want to come and walk around the lake?’. So we had a business meeting around the lake, and it was one of the best business meetings I’ve ever had.” - 4:10 - Gary Gamp 

“If you want to get people to tell you stuff, you need to sit at 45 degrees. When you look at someone head-on, face-to-face, it feels confrontational and intimate.” - 7:35 - Gary Gamp
