	By being both {{ index . 5 }} and {{ index . 6 }}, our {{ index . 7 }} approach will drive {{ index . 8 }} throughout the organisation. 
	Synergies between our {{ index . 9 }} and {{ index . 10 }} will enable us to capture the upside by becoming {{ index . 11 }} in a {{ index . 12 }} world. 
	These transformations combined with {{ index . 13 }} due to our {{ index . 14 }} will create a {{ index . 15 }} through {{ index . 16 }} and {{ index . 17 }}.
