Regulation is changing but is your culture changing too?

As the FCA launches its regulations on non-financial misconduct (NFM), discover how Self Space can help you build a company culture designed to protect your people, your reputation and your bottom line.

Regulation is a requirement. Culture is a choice.

Bullying, harassment, and discrimination have no place at work – and the FCA agrees. Under new regulations, non-financial misconduct (NFM) will be treated with the same severity as fraud. As of September, leaders are officially responsible for company culture. This isn’t just another HR update, it’s a call for immediate change in the workplace. It’s time to put mental-health and wellness policies into action.

Drawing on deep clinical and therapeutic expertise and combining diagnostics, insights, techniques & training; Self Space helps organisations to create real behavioural change. Whether that’s building a stronger leadership, putting mental health at the forefront of team training or mental health first aid, we’re here to help you foster a culture where people feel strong and safe enough to speak up.

‘One of the best training sessions I’ve been on, it was excellent.’

Cash Access UK

We brought our “Tools for Leaders” workshop to Cash Access UK’s remote managers, enabling them to step away from the urge to “fix” their teams and move toward a model of validation and shared accountability.

Led by our therapists, eleven managers gained the skills to truly listen, spot early signs of burnout, and handle difficult conversations without prejudice.

This led to a measurable boost in confidence across the entire company, proving just how important it is when mental health issues are handled with genuine care and honesty.

LIIBA

We’re supporting the London & International Insurance Brokers’ Association (LIIBA) to help their members navigate the FCA’s new regulations by focusing on the people, not just their policies.

By applying a human-first lens to culture, psychological safety, and leadership accountability, we are giving brokers the confidence to hold space and have honest, meaningful conversations with their team surrounding mental health.

Firms don’t just need updated documents; they need to be compliant and they need people equipped to act differently when it matters. Our programme in partnership with LIIBA will help strengthen workplace culture across its membership.
