Wendy Badger – Changing Ladders to Advance Your Career


The Compliance Life details the journey to and in the role of a Chief Compliance Officer. How does one come to sit in the CCO chair? What are some of the skills a CCO needs to success navigate the compliance waters in any company? What are some of the top challenges CCOs have faced and how did they meet them? These questions and many others will be explored in this new podcast series. Over four episodes each month on The Compliance Life, I visit with one current or former CCO to explore their journey to the CCO chair. This month, my guest is Wendy Badger, CCO at Tennant Company.
Wendy further elaborated on her non-traditional career path, where she found sometimes you must change your career ladder to advance your career. From the trade association, she went in-house with an accounts receivable management organization. She was the first and only lawyer on staff. The work provided both challenges and opportunities in the role. From there she decided to move into private practice, found out how it was different from in-house roles and ultimately decided to move back in-house.
