A generous employer surprised his entire team with an all-paid trip to Ibiza and tickets to Calvin Harris residency as a reward after their best quarter ever. Ashley Jones, 34, the founder of Great Influence, a personal branding start-up decided to surprise his team to celebrate the company's performance in Q2, their best since its founding in late 2018. The company covered all costs including flights, lunches, dinner and entertainment spending £7,000 in total. Ashley, who is from Manchester, said: "The team have worked so hard over the last few months and it felt like the right thing to do to show appreciation. "I also believe it’s my responsibility that whilst they work here, we give them the best memories possible." Ashley, who wanted to capture the moment on camera, had to lure the team into a meeting room and tell them they needed to attend a filmed workshop. Filmed July 2022
