Episode 102: Governing Through Legislative Reform – Culture, Communication, and Trust

In this episode of Regulation Matters: a CLEAR conversation, host Line Dempsey speaks with Tamara Richter and Carin Plischke about what major regulatory reform looks like in practice. Drawing from their organizations’ experiences with legislative change, multi-profession regulation, governance restructuring, and large-scale organizational transformation, they discuss the realities of implementing change amid political pressure and uncertainty. The conversation explores change fatigue, communication strategies, public trust, evolving governance models, and the challenges of integrating new professions and organizational cultures. They also share candid reflections on lessons learned, what they would do differently, and practical advice for regulators preparing for significant change of their own.
