Banking Monsters & Myths with Samantha (Sam) Emery Igniting Innovation

    • Emprendimiento

"the one that (sadly) will resonate with bankers the most"



Samatha (Sam) Emery is a formidable change agent - a genuine "force of nature" within the financial services industry in the UK and beyond. Having held prominent positions at RBS, the FCA, Lloyds Banking Group and Swift, she is a frequent speaker at many of the financial services events I attend, and from the very first time I saw Sam on stage, I've wanted to get her on this podcast.

I knew that in order for her to achieve what she has done so far, she would have have faced what most people would consider insurmountable barriers and obstacles - just have a listen to the first 5 minutes of this show to see why I say that!

In the true spirit of the show, Sam not only shared the Monsters and Myths (the barriers and obstacles) that she has encountered on her innovation, change and transformation journey to date, but also the Mayhem (the impact) these cause in organisations and the Magic (the solution / approach) that she has successfully applied to conquer them.

We discussed:



* The Comfort Cocoon - that lulls people and organisations into complacency and inhibits change and transformation

* The Fragmented Labyrinth - of the financial services landscape

* The Meritocracy Mirage - the myth that hard work will get you ahead (acutely experienced by underrepresented minority groups)



You can follow Sam's journey on LinkedIn here and don't pass on an opportunity to see her on stage - you won't regret it!





How many Monsters & Myths could we

CONQUER TOGETHER?
