The large-scale shift to telework brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic is prompting businesses around the world to explore new avenues to engage with clients and friends. Harris Bricken is no exception, and we are happy to provide this podcast series: Global Law and Business, hosted by international attorneys Fred Rocafort and Jonathan Bench.
In Episode #39, we are joined by Nadia Lazareva, a senior manager at HSBC in Hong Kong. We discuss:

- Why learning Mandarin is a great investment
- What working at a large international bank like HSBC is like
- Nadia’s advice to women and girls thinking of a career in banking
- Why there is nothing wrong with saying “I don’t know”
- Finding the right balance between motherhood and work
- What a typical day looks like for a compliance officer at HSBC
- The role of risk in career-building
