Welcome to the only roundtable podcast in compliance. The entire gang was also recently honored by W3 as a top talk show in podcasting. In this episode, we have the quartet of Jay Rosen, Jonathan Armstrong, Karen Woody and Matt Kelly. We conclude with our fan favorite Shout Outs and Rants.
1. Jay Rosen discusses the connection an ethics and compliance corporate culture survey and an ESG culture survey. Rosen also discusses what companies can do to improve overall ESG culture. Rosen rants the Academy of Motion Picture snubbing of the Director of Dune for Best Director when the picture won 6 other Oscars.
2. Matt Kelly takes a deep dive into the SEC proposed rules on climate risk disclosure and their impact on the compliance profession. Kelly shouts out to the Golden Raspberry Foundation, who award the ‘Razzie’s’ for withdrawing their previously created award of Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in a Bruce Willis movie after the actor retired due to Aphasia.
3. Jonathan Armstrong looks at greenwashing and how companies which are trying to do the right thing often get in trouble by doing it the wrong way. Armstrong shouts out to Tina Turner for advancing the cause of GDPR and explaining once and for all time ‘what’s love got to do with it.’
4. Karen Woody explains the SEC rule making process and how it can be challenged and responds to SEC Commissioner Peirce’s dissent to the proposed rules. Woody shouts out to the magic of Harry Potter World in Orlando have what she described as ‘awesome’ roller coaster rides, well worth the 3-hour wait in line.
