Eric Lin, welcome. Appreciate you spending a little bit of time today to chat about some of the things that Cross Country Consulting is up to. And just for context, for the, for the billions of listeners and viewers here, I had the pleasure to work with Cross Country with you and your team. I was always struck by how seriously you took the prioritization of vision and mission as a company, and also how that translated into how you would message and present yourself to the outside world. So for those watching, that's what we're going to talk about. And I think Eric will share some things that hopefully people can get some insights from. Tell me what you do and tell me about a little bit about CrossCountry, if you don't mind.
Sure. So again, Eric London, I'm the co-founder and a co-managing partner of CrossCountry Consulting. And Bob, great to be here today. Yes. A great advocate and friend to our firm over the years. So really, really appreciate it. So as a managing partner of the firm, I spend a lot of time helping set the strategic direction, help attract people to our platform. But I'm most proud of, we have really worked hard to set the tone setting the tone for what makes Cross Country unique and different, which is our culture. So hopefully I'm a big culture carrier on behalf of the firm and setting the tone for our close to 600 employees.

Yeah, 700 by the end of the year at the clip we're running right now.
