This week we are talking about a half Scottish, half Indian gentleman who had the misfortune to be the chosen successor to one of the most formidable leaders India has ever produced.With no discernible skills in diplomacy, war or financial management David Ochterlony Dyce Sombre would have found the transition from heir to ruler hard at the best of times, but at a time of East India Company expansion it was virtually impossible.

Chris Daw QC (Queen's Counsel) is a barrister, author, broadcaster and non-executive director. Chris is involved in some of the most high profile cases in the English Courts and is not shy to ask the question 'why' as he probes the Status Quo. His latest book "Justice on Trial" suggests the closing of prisons, the decriminalisation of drugs and keeping kids out of the criminal justice system. Whilst Chris is not afraid to suggest extremes, he is forever the pragmatist and always seeks small wins and minimal gains during his insatiably curious journey through change. Leaders must be accountable for driving change during constant change and the pandemic has offered us a crisis of opportunity.  Chris talks about the need to avoid the 'hypnosis of the norm' and be curious to identify better ways of working, better processes and procedures, better people management systems whilst balancing humility, courage, vulnerability, inclusivity and empathy.Â
Reorg’s Head of EMEA Covenants Shweta Rao speaks to Senior Legal Analyst Shan Qureshi about: How the cross-class cramdown tool in the new Part 26A works in practice, with debtors able to bind whole classes of dissenting creditors to their plans; How the usefulness of the Part 26A plan has been curtailed across Europe due to Brexit and English Courts’ interpretation of the tool’s application - local law recognition procedures across Europe will need to be examined on a case-by-base basis; and How both schemes and part 26A plans are hard to successfully challenge.
