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 Stephen Martin, CCO at Skillsoft on his path to the CCO Chair.

From the corporate world, Martin moves to the compliance consulting world, first at Baker & McKenzie and later moving to StoneTurn. Martin literally traveled the globe (multiple times) both investigating allegations of bribery and corruption and building out best practices compliance programs. He also began teaching a compliance course at the University of Denver and reflects on lessons from that experience. He concludes by talking about the need for a personal brand and how he created one.
