The psychology of high performance: Jake Humphrey on the science of success

To kickstart the Speaker Series Autumn Programme, we’ll be joined by BT Sport presenter and chart-topping podcast host, Jake Humphrey. Hosted by Vitality’s Adam Saville, we’ll ask: what sets high-performing individuals, like an elite sports professional or a top CEO, apart from an average one? What makes a winning mentality? And how can subtle shifts in psychology help breed success in both our personal and professional lives? We’ll also learn about Jake’s illustrious and inspirational career so far.

Sustainability and the ESG revolution - what are the driving forces for you and your clients?

To coincide with the UN’s major climate change conference COP26 in November, our expert panel, including SRI’s Julia Dreblow and Professor Matthew Gitsham, will examine how the ever-changing ESG landscape will continue to drive client conversations for financial advisers going forward. With the FCA paying closer attention to ‘greenwashing’ and regulatory changes on the horizon, we’ll investigate this hugely challenging and complex area for advisers, while touching upon embedding ESG into client suitability processes.
