Sue Scott-From Compliance to Coaching

Great Women in Compliance

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.

This week we feature another life after Compliance story with Sue Scott. Sue, originally from South Africa and currently residing in the United Kingdom, is a Compliance veteran with 20 years of experience at HSBC. But this episode doesn’t focus on financial services Compliance, instead we hear Sue’s journey as she considered moving away from Compliance and trying something new. Mary asks her about her thought process and considerations in making such a big life decision and Sue shares what some of the biggest challenges are for clients at the moment (we’re willing to bet the majority of the Great Women in Compliance audience will find something here relatable – mom/mum guilt anyone?) and Sue shares some coaching advice for how to address some of these issues.

If you’ve been thinking about getting into coaching, moving into a new area or simply advance planning for your future, this episode will provide helpful considerations and inspiration for taking the big leap – or preparing to do so at least!

For those of you who find that mom/mum guilt is something that resonates deeply, keep an eye out for our upcoming episode with Karina Vollmer where we dive into that challenge in further detail with advice from Karina, a Chief Compliance Officer working mum, or mom as she would say.
