Human behaviours in the digital world should reflect what we do physically in the analog world.
What I mean by that is in a physical sense, we would all bend over backwards to help our clients and keep them safe, but so often, those behaviours are not reflected in the digital world of protecting clients' data. It's fair to say it's not intentional; we don't know what we don't know. But what we do know, is it is a recognised unknown, so we should take the time to find out what you and your team can do. Episode 6 of the CPD Masterclass covers a few of these unknowns, but the list is long and requires a bit more time to change habits, behaviours, and culture. What are your analogies for helping your team understand the seriousness of protecting your client's data? Don't forget to check out Episode Six and get your CPD!

I've been giving a lot of thought to how the increasing presence of artificial intelligence will affect how we hire and develop talent in the financial services industry. Would love to hear what everyone else is thinking. As AI gets better at handling routine tasks and data analysis, the kind of work we typically give to new hires to cut their teeth on, it raises some important questions. For starters, what kind of roles and responsibilities should we be hiring for now? Should we be focusing more on bringing in people with strong interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence, and strategic thinking abilities? People who are able to form genuine relationships with clients and come up with original solutions to difficult problems? What do you think are the key roles we should be hiring for now? I'm eager to hear your ideas on how businesses can attract, nurture, and retain top talent in this new era.
