It is a pleasure to welcome back the author of “Banks and Fintech on Platform Economies: Contextual and Conscious Banking “ Paolo Sironi, welcome to the show Evolving bank business models on outcome economies, resolving the tension between information and communication, which requires overcoming the fears of abandoning the shore of established operational models, and all the products and services rendered. In the dark of the new digital, financial and economic normal, only a crisp and clear vision can guide all stakeholders in the transformation effort. Furthermore, the regulators need to be aligned on the new digital strategies that will ferry the whole industry to more sustainable shores. What is needed is a business map and a compass to guide the navigation. The map is the Banking Reinvention Quadrant (BRQ), and the compass pointing to the North Star of higher business value is the theory of Financial Market Transparency (FMT)

While the mechanistic work mindset has spurred huge growth and riches for many, it’s an approach that has masked a fundamental truth: Rather than a machine, organizations are living, dynamic systems that can’t be programmed. Instead, they thrive through relationships, adaptive structures, diverse networks of people, the spaces they occupy, the tools they use – and so, so much more. For our guests– the answer to a better world lies in The Nature of Work Mindset: a new language inspired by forests and other elements of the natural world. This new vocabulary helps us to perceive work in a more dynamic way, to move away from the ‘organization as machine’ model and towards an ‘organization as organism’ view.   We welcome Paul Miller and Paul Miller.   Find Paul and Shimrit here: https://digitalworkplacegroup.com

Once upon a time, the Persian king of all kings, Shahryār, beheaded his wife after discovering she was unfaithful. Overcome with rage, the monarch resolved to exact revenge on womankind by taking a new wife each night and beheading her the next morning. After most of the eligible women in the kingdom had either fled or been killed, Scheherazade, the daughter of the king’s advisor, devised a scheme to save herself and future victims. Scheherazade insisted on marrying the monarch, and on their first night together she told him a story, without revealing the ending. The king permitted her to live another day to finish her tale, and so she continued with her cliffhangers for 1,001 nights. Eventually, Scheherazade’s stories caused the king to have a change of heart, realise the injustices he had wrought and cease his vengeful rampage. Scheherazade, the narrator of the tales of One Thousand and One Nights, earned her place as one of the shrewdest heroines in world literature. While this story was set in the Islamic Golden Age, Scheherazade could be considered a highly effective coach or psychotherapist today. Through storytelling techniques, she awakened the king’s curiosity, challenged his behaviour and managed to change his outlook on life. Scheherazade’s form of psychological intervention can be applied to different situations.   Manfred Kets de Vries is the Distinguished Clinical Professor of Leadership Development & Organisational Change at INSEAD and the Raoul de Vitry d'Avaucourt Chaired Professor of Leadership Development, Emeritus.
