Great Women in Compliance

Great Women in Compliance: AI, Compliance & Thinking Outside the Box

AI is a key topic for all of us these days, and for ethics and compliance professionals, it is a challenge and an opportunity. In this episode, Lisa Fine and Hemma Lomax speak with Mara Senn, founder and CEO of Ethakos, and Audrey Harris, Managing Director at Affiliated Monitors; both have deep experience across investigations, enforcement, in-house compliance, and monitorships. We focus on what AI means for compliance – from how it is changing how companies operate to how it can help us work smarter while keeping humans in the AI loop.

They share insights from their experience on many topics, including:

  • Moving beyond AI as a time-saving tool and thinking bigger about how it can transform compliance.
  • Why compliance needs to understand the business, its systems, and its data.
  • The risks of staying safely inside the “compliance box.”
  • How better data and AI can help compliance see risk differently—and connect the dots.
  • Why tech and data skills are becoming essential for the next generation of compliance professionals.
  • Finding the balance between innovation and risk management.

This is a great discussion for novice AI users and experienced professionals alike.

Innovation in Compliance: Bennett Borden on the AI Driven Law Practices of Clarion AI Partners

Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom speaks with Bennett Borden of Clarion AI Partners.

Borden is a lawyer and data scientist whose career has long focused on the intersection of law, data, and technology, including AI governance, compliance, and the legal implications of generative AI. Drawing on experience at the CIA, in big law, and leading AI-focused legal practices, he views generative AI as a disruptive force reshaping both legal services and business models. Borden argues that effective AI governance requires “governance engineering”: translating legal obligations into technical controls and measurable proof of compliance rather than treating compliance as a separate burden. He also encourages lawyers and organizations to embrace AI proactively, using it to build more efficient, future-ready practices while managing risk through practical, system-level safeguards.

 

Key highlights:

  • AI-Driven Law Practice Beyond the Billable Hour
  • Compliance as guardrails for faster innovation
  • Gift, Travel, and Entertainment Sandbox Projects
  • Trust Built by Enterprise Licenses and Safeguards
  • Microsecond-by-Microsecond Compliance Proof for AI Governance

Innovation in Compliance was recently honored as the Number 4 podcast in Risk Management by 1,000,000 Podcasts
