Compliance Communication Failures

What are some common mistakes that compliance professionals make when communicating about compliance? Since 1991, when the US Sentencing Guidelines first addressed the importance of communication in tandem with formal compliance training, compliance officers have occasionally struggled with how frequently and in what ways to address compliance communication. In this episode, Eric talks about some common issues organizations have faced when considering the more informal side of efforts to educate and inform employees and other stakeholders about compliance risks and issues. Eric also focuses on ways organizations can address these common situations and how the recent the Department of Justice’s recent guidance, the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs, and other standards effect communication requirements and expectations. Finally, Eric also offers some specific practical ideas for organizations to consider when addressing compliance communication efforts.
