In our latest podcast episode, Holly Mapstone, HR Consultant, IHRS, and Nikki Bennett, MD, UKGI, delve into the critical topic of vulnerability within the financial sector. With increasing complexities and challenges facing the industry, understanding vulnerability has never been more relevant. Holly and Nikki are joined by Julia Coakley, COO, MGAA.
We explore how vulnerability can be defined in this context and discuss its growing significance in fostering authentic connections and trust among clients and stakeholders. As financial organisations navigate regulatory changes, we examine the role of compliance in creating an environment where vulnerability is not just accepted but encouraged, from both an employee perspective and a consumer view.
Our conversation also highlights the profound impact of a vulnerability-driven culture on employee well-being and mental health. By embracing vulnerability, organisations can foster a supportive atmosphere that not only enhances employee engagement but also improves overall workplace morale.
