Speakers: Neil Mullarkey and Ian Rodwell

We rarely consider the power of humour and laughter in the workplace. But the evidence shows that not only can it make us feel more connected but it can also supercharge performance and creativity. So who better than Neil Mullarkey, one of the world’s most experienced and accomplished improv performers and a veteran of ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway’ and two Austen Powers movies, to talk about why laughter can, indeed, be the best medicine. Drawing on Neil’s extensive work with business organisations and his book, ‘In the moment’, we discuss how improv can improve our ability to listen, notice and be curious – skills that lie at the heart of so many organisational activities such as leading, negotiating, coaching and collaborating. We also investigate why moments matter, the role of trust and how getting off the lift at the wrong floor can sometimes be a clever thing to do.

Episode 1

The PRA and FCA are consulting on new proposals to relax some of the remuneration pay rules for senior staff at banks and making the regime more flexible and proportionate. The changes would reduce the number of material risk takers (MRTs), simplify the tests for identifying them, and ease restrictions on paying out bonuses. At the same time, the regulators propose to strengthen MRTs’ accountability through pay outcomes.

This podcast considers the proposals and their likely impact, and what you need to do to prepare for the new regime. 

In this episode, TMT managing associate Jia-Yi Tay explores Singapore's latest regulatory developments in AI and cybersecurity.

These new guidelines clarify consent requirements and the role of AI system developers as data intermediaries, while the amendments expand the scope of regulated entities under the Cybersecurity Act.
