ECI’s IMPACT 2023 was one of the leading compliance events in 2023. At this conference, Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, was able to visit with several of the speakers, exhibitors, participants and one group of ethically minded Girl Scout Troop. In this limited podcast series, Report from IMPACT 2023, Tom explores many of the most cutting-edge topics in ethics and compliance through short podcast episodes. Check out the full series of interviews. You will be enlightened, informed and come away with a fuller and more thorough understanding of the most cutting-edge topics in ethics and compliance. In this episode, Tom visits Richard Davies a Board member of ECI since 2021.

Richard Davies brings a wealth of experience from his time in the General Counsel’s office and active involvement in industry organizations. Davies views ECI’s expanded focus on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues as a positive and necessary shift, seeing it as a significant transformation for the organization. He believes that ECI’s traditional focus on ethics and compliance has broadened to address the most pressing issues of the day, reflecting a convergence of various risks. Davies’ perspective is shaped by his belief that boards and senior management teams are more concerned with addressing these risks than assigning responsibilities to specific groups. He applauds ECI’s role in supporting sustainability teams effectively. Join Tom Fox and Richard Davies as they delve deeper into this topic on the next episode of the Report from Impact podcast.
