Listen "S7 E4 Kevin Nash, LCIA"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to Season 7 of Tales of the Tribunal!
After a short August break, we’re back with another global voice shaping the practice of international arbitration: Kevin Nash, Director General of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA).
Kevin’s career spans Canada, Asia, and now London, where he’s helping lead one of the world’s most prominent arbitral institutions into a new era. In this episode, Kevin shares:
His journey from Western Canada to Singapore and now London
Lessons from team sports that apply directly to leadership in arbitration
The LCIA’s priorities around AI, diversity, and potential rule changes
Why transparency in institutional data matters—and what LCIA is doing about it
Advice for students and young practitioners navigating their careers
Plus, a few book and music recommendations you might not expect 🎶📚
And this episode is extra special—our intern Lidia joins the conversation to add her own perspective and questions.
