Risky Women Sydney: Regulatory Summit Lunch with Ruth Steinholz

Sydney was a sell out.  Barbara Leech Walters (episode 7 RWR) welcomed Risky Women to the event.  Barbara recently moved from Hong Kong to Sydney to join Westpac as COO, Compliance and as part of the global network stepped in to share her thoughts on the network and give a sneek peek of the new brand to the sydney audience.

Gillian Cameron, Director of Client Services for Refnitiv in the Pacific, interviewed Ruth Steinholtz, Managing Partner at AretéWork.

After the success of Singapore it was Sydney’s turn to hear Ruth’s unique approach to compliance and enforcement based on her knowledge of the underlying legal and regulatory frameworks and combining her expertise in culture risk measurement, behavioral ethics and culture change.  A fast paced discussion on the importance of taking a behavioral and values-based approach and to achieve a cultural shift transpired. Given the recent Royal Commission into Banking, it was a hot topic that generated a lot of interest and discussion.
