Leveraging Technology for Culture Monitoring

Welcome to a special five-part blog series on building a stronger culture of compliance, sponsored by Diligent. In this series I will visit with Yvette Hollingsworth-Clark, Viktor Cuijak, Jessica Czeczuga; Michael Parker; and Alexander Cotoia. In this series, we will consider what is culture, how to assess culture, putting together a strategy to manage culture based upon this assessment, the monitoring of that strategy going forward and using information from your monitoring to engage in continuous improvement of your culture.

Many compliance professionals struggle with the ‘softness’ of culture. However, properly viewed culture can be seen as another type of risk for any organization. Viewed through this lens, culture can then be assessed, managed, monitored and improved as any other business risk. This has become even more important since the announcement in October 2021 by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, that the Department of Justice would assess corporate culture as a part of corporate compliance enforcement action. In this Part 4, we consider review how to monitor your culture risk  strategy for effectiveness with Michael Parker.

Michael Parker is a seasoned compliance professional with extensive experience in cultivating and sustaining a compliance culture within businesses. He asserts that there is no universal approach to establishing a compliance culture, emphasizing the necessity of providing options and guidance to employees, rather than merely imposing rules. Parker underscores the importance of continuous engagement and communication in managing compliance culture risks, and the crucial role of leadership in setting the tone for compliance and fostering an ethical culture throughout the organization. He also acknowledges the significance of incentives in promoting compliance, but stresses that the approach to incentivizing employees should be customized to individual circumstances and should include a clear understanding of the consequences of non-compliance.

Leadership plays a pivotal role in fostering a culture of compliance. Executives must lead by example and embody the organization’s mission and values. As Michael Parker emphasizes, it is not just about telling employees what to do but guiding them towards making the right decisions. Providing options and knowledge is essential, as people may unknowingly make decisions that go against policies or regulations due to a lack of information.

To ensure ongoing engagement, businesses should view compliance as an ongoing process rather than a one-time activity. This approach involves continuous listening and asking for feedback from employees. It is important to provide guidance rather than just guidelines, helping individuals understand the purpose behind compliance policies. By championing the organization’s values and mission, leadership can create a trickle-down effect, encouraging employees to align their actions with the desired culture.

Incentives also play a significant role in promoting compliance. Just as third parties have an incentive to complete certifications and engage in compliance efforts to do business with a company, employees have a vested interest in working for an organization that upholds ethical standards. By aligning incentives with compliance initiatives, businesses can motivate employees to actively participate in maintaining a compliance culture.

Technology can be a valuable tool in monitoring and educating employees about compliance. Micro-learning courses, compliance training videos, quizzes, and surveys can be used to deliver targeted and concise information. Short videos with quizzes can help raise awareness and educate employees on compliance topics. Surveys, when kept short and incentivized, can provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of compliance efforts and help measure the culture of compliance within the organization.

Tracking and storing compliance-related information is essential for transparency and visibility. Utilizing applications with dashboards can help businesses monitor engagement, track completion rates of training videos, and collect survey responses. This data can provide compliance officers with valuable information for ongoing monitoring and identifying areas that require additional training or education.

I believe the key is in viewing culture as a risk and applying risk management principles to assess and monitor compliance efforts. By treating culture as a risk, businesses can assess their compliance risk, identify gaps, and remediate as necessary. This approach allows for a systematic and proactive approach to managing compliance culture.

However, creating and maintaining a compliance culture is not without its challenges. Compliance fatigue can occur if communication and education efforts become overwhelming or burdensome. To combat this, shorter and more interactive methods, such as micro-learning and office hours, can be implemented. These shorter bursts of information align with today’s culture of brief and engaging content, making compliance education more accessible and less burdensome.

In conclusion, creating and maintaining a compliance culture in businesses requires a multifaceted approach. Leadership must champion the organization’s values and mission, while incentives and technology can motivate and educate employees. Viewing culture as a risk and applying risk management principles can help businesses assess and monitor their compliance efforts. By considering the impact on employees and adapting communication and education methods to align with today’s culture, businesses can foster a strong compliance culture that promotes ethical behavior and regulatory adherence.

Managing Culture Risk

Welcome to a special five-part blog series on building a stronger culture of compliance, sponsored by Diligent. In this series I will visit with Yvette Hollingsworth-Clark, Viktor Cuijak, Jessica Czeczuga; Michael Parker; and Alexander Cotoia. In this series, we will consider what is culture, how to assess culture, putting together a strategy to manage culture based upon this assessment, the monitoring of that strategy going forward and using information from your monitoring to engage in continuous improvement of your culture.

Many compliance professionals struggle with the ‘softness’ of culture. However, properly viewed culture can be seen as another type of risk for any organization. Viewed through this lens, culture can then be assessed, managed, monitored and improved as any other business risk. This has become even more important since the announcement in October 2021 by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, that the Department of Justice would assess corporate culture as a part of corporate compliance enforcement action. In this Part 3, we consider how to manage your culture risk through the crucial role of managers with assess your culture with Jessica Czeczuga.

Jessica Czeczuga is a seasoned professional with over two decades of experience in the training and development field, specializing in areas such as finance, quality, compliance and ethics, leadership, and communication training. Jessica brings a unique perspective to the compliance space, emphasizing the pivotal role of managers in shaping and reinforcing company culture. She believes that managers, being the most influential group within an organization, should be adequately trained to align with the desired culture and equipped with the necessary tools to effectively communicate and reinforce cultural values. Jessica also advocates for the collaboration between compliance professionals and HR to improve culture, leveraging their counseling skills and creating clear processes for reporting and addressing culture-related issues.

According to Czeczuga, managers are the most influential group in an organization when it comes to shaping company culture. They are the boots on the ground, constantly interacting with the employees that report to them. Their ability to talk and influence gives them a lot of power in driving the desired culture. Therefore, it is crucial for organizations to reach out to managers and get them on board with the desired culture, as they will naturally drive that message deeper into the organization.

She emphasized the importance of managers in shaping and reinforcing company culture was discussed. Managers play a significant role in driving the desired culture deeper into the organization, as they are in constant contact with employees and have the ability to support, promote, permit, or ignore certain behaviors and values.

To effectively manage culture, compliance professionals need to empower and train managers. Just like any other training program, a strong training program should be set up for managers, focusing not only on providing them with information about the desired culture but also on practical application. Role-playing and conversations with employees are key to driving behavior change and ensuring that managers are equipped to deliver the desired cultural messages.

The collaboration between HR and compliance departments is also important in reinforcing the importance of culture and driving a culture of reporting. HR, with its extensive touchpoints with employees, plays a crucial role in reinforcing compliance and culture messages. By partnering with HR, compliance professionals can ensure that the messages about culture are consistent and delivered from multiple angles, making them stronger and more impactful.

HR can also provide valuable insights and skills to the compliance function. HR has as many touchpoints with employees as any other corporate function, making it an ideal partner for compliance in reinforcing culture. HR can help compliance professionals in delivering messages about culture to different levels of employees and can provide guidance on how to address culture issues in conversations with employees.

The key takeaway is that managers have a crucial role in shaping and reinforcing company culture. They are the gatekeepers of culture and have the power to drive the desired culture deeper into the organization. To effectively manage culture, compliance professionals should focus on empowering and training managers, while also collaborating with HR to reinforce culture messages. Practical application, such as role-playing and conversations with employees, is key to driving behavior change and ensuring that managers are equipped to deliver the desired cultural messages.

In conclusion, the role of managers in shaping and reinforcing company culture cannot be underestimated. They have the ability to support, promote, permit, or ignore certain behaviors and values, making them the most influential group in an organization when it comes to culture. By empowering and training managers, and collaborating with HR, compliance professionals can effectively manage culture and drive the desired behaviors and values throughout the organization.

Assessing Organizational Culture

Welcome to a special five-part blog series on building a stronger culture of compliance, sponsored by Diligent.

This has become even more important since the announcement in October 2021 by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, that the Department of Justice would assess corporate culture as a part of any corporate compliance enforcement action. In this Part 2, consider how to assess your culture with Viktor Cuijak.

Cuijak, a chartered accountant with a strong background in finance, audit, and risk consulting, currently serves as the Director of Customer Success and Services at Diligent. With a decade of experience in the Big Four and a focus on governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) objectives, Cuijak firmly believes in the importance of assessing and managing organizational culture as a risk factor. He views culture as a dynamic risk that can have significant consequences if not properly managed, and advocates for standardized and benchmarked culture assessments to provide valuable insights for risk management. Cuijak emphasizes the need for practical guidance on implementation, highlighting the significance of tone at the top and other artifacts such as policies, procedures, and feedback mechanisms in culture assessments. Crucial Role of Culture podcast.

Assessing and managing organizational culture as a risk factor is a crucial aspect of ensuring the success and sustainability of any organization. A compliance professional can begin by the using existing frameworks like COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission) for guidance in assessing and managing organizational culture. This framework provides principles and guidelines that help organizations understand the key factors that impact culture as a risk factor.

The tone at the top, policies, procedures, and feedback mechanisms were identified as key indicators of an organization’s culture. The tone at the top refers to the leadership’s actions and behaviors, which set the tone for the entire organization. Policies and procedures play a crucial role in shaping the desired culture, but it is not enough to simply have them in place. Actions, communications, and responses must align with the stated culture.

One of the key challenges is the nebulous and intangible nature of culture, which can make it difficult to assess and audit. However, Cuijak emphasized that culture can be thought of as just another risk that organizations need to manage. By asking the question, “What can go wrong?” organizations can identify potential risks and gaps in their culture and take steps to address them.

Standardized evaluation was also discussed as a valuable tool for assessing and benchmarking culture. It provides a common language and framework for managing risks associated with culture. By using evaluation tools, organizations can track their progress and identify areas for growth.

Cuijak also emphasized the importance of considering the impact of culture when making decisions. Culture is not just a checklist exercise, but rather a holistic approach that encompasses actions, communications, and responses. It is not enough to have policies and procedures in place; organizations must demonstrate their culture through their actions and communications.

While frameworks like COSO provide principles and guidance, they may not always provide the specific “how” in assessing and managing culture. This is where organizations need to tailor their approach and consider additional tools and techniques that align with their specific needs and goals.

In conclusion, assessing and managing organizational culture as a risk factor is a complex but essential task for organizations. By using existing frameworks, evaluating key indicators, and considering the impact of culture on decision-making, organizations can identify potential risks, address gaps, and create a culture that supports their overall success and sustainability.

What is Corporate Culture?

Welcome to a special five-part blog series on building a stronger culture of compliance, sponsored by Diligent. In this series I will visit with Yvette Hollingsworth-Clark, Viktor Cuijak, Jessica Czeczuga; Michael Parker; and Alexander Cotoia. In this series, we will consider what is culture, how to assess culture, putting together a strategy to manage culture based upon this assessment, the monitoring of that strategy going forward and using information from your monitoring to engage in continuous improvement of your culture.

Many compliance professionals struggle with the ‘softness’ of culture. However, properly viewed culture can be seen as another type of risk for any organization. Viewed through this lens, culture can then be assessed, managed, monitored and improved as any other business risk. This has become even more important since the announcement in October 2021 by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, that the Department of Justice would assess corporate culture as a part of any corporate compliance enforcement action. In this Part 1, we ask what is culture with our special guest Yvette Hollingsworth-Clark.

Yvette currently holds the position of Chief Compliance Officer for State Street Corporation  and is on the Board of Directors at Diligent. With a robust background in risk management, Yvette has cultivated a deep understanding of the significance and measurement of corporate culture. She asserts that corporate culture should not be solely managed by the compliance function, but rather owned by the C-suite and executed in various forms. Yvette stressed the need for specific metrics to monitor and promote desired cultural values, such as integrity, and believes that culture can be measured through metrics such as the number of risk decisions overruled, challenged, or implemented correctly. She also highlighted the importance of considering stakeholders such as customers, clients, and third parties when assessing corporate culture.

Yvette emphasized that culture is not solely the responsibility of the compliance function but is owned by the C-suite and executed in various ways throughout the organization. CEOs have a significant role to play in driving corporate culture. They must lead by example, set expectations, and hold managers accountable for adhering to the desired cultural attributes.

One key aspect is the importance of tone from the top. Employees observe the behavior of their senior leaders and often mimic their actions. CEOs need to be conscious of the examples they set, both verbally and through their behavior. Fairness is also crucial in setting the culture of a company. Every decision made by senior leaders, regardless of their position, should demonstrate fairness and align with the desired culture.

The Board of Directors also plays a significant role in shaping and overseeing corporate culture. They need to understand how management defines culture and how ethical issues are managed within the organization. Yvette advises boards to think about the framework of culture more broadly, considering factors such as the company’s reputation to customers and other stakeholders, as well as the employee experience. It is essential to demonstrate how the organization is executing against the cultural attributes that are deemed positive for the company.

Assessing corporate culture is a complex task that requires a balance between art and science. While there are specific metrics that can be used to measure culture, such as risk decisions, policy violations, and disciplinary actions, it is important to anchor the assessment to the specific aspects of culture that are relevant to the organization. Yvette suggests using a suite of metrics that focus on risk excellence and positive indicators of culture, such as employee training, customer treatment, and incident handling.

One must always remember that assessing culture is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It requires organizations to be specific about what their data can answer and what it cannot. A culture assessment is still more of an art than a science, but it is crucial to have a clear understanding of the indicators that align with the organization’s desired culture.

In conclusion, corporate culture is of utmost importance in the financial services industry. It is not only the responsibility of the compliance function but is owned by the C-suite and executed throughout the organization. CEOs must lead by example and set expectations, while the board plays a significant role in shaping and overseeing culture. Assessing culture requires a balance between art and science, with organizations using specific metrics that align with their desired cultural attributes. By prioritizing and measuring culture, financial services organizations can create an environment that promotes ethical behavior, risk excellence, and positive outcomes for all stakeholders.

31 Days to More Effective Compliance Programs

One Month to a More Effective Compliance Program: Day 19 – Compliance Culture At The Bottom

One of the most important focuses of the DOJ’s 2023 ECCP was around culture. This means how far has the culture of compliance been driven down into an organization. The 2019 Guidance posed the following:
Culture of Compliance – How often and how does the company measure its culture of compliance? Does the company seek input from all levels of employees to determine whether they perceive senior and middle management’s commitment to compliance? What steps has the company taken in response to its measurement of the compliance culture?
These questions point to a CCO or compliance practitioner demonstrating how a culture of compliance is being burned into the very fabric of an organization. While leadership at and from the top has long been considered by both the DOJ and compliance professionals as a key element to move compliance forward, the 2019 Evaluation has also crystalized thinking around compliance culture throughout the organization, including at the bottom
Too often, strategies to move a compliance program or even an initiative come from the top of an organization and are pushed down. To fully operationalize compliance, you must have leadership in compliance further down the organization which (hopefully) has been a part of the design process and can lead the implementation throughout an organization.

Three key takeaways:

  1. While tone at the top is critical, the tone at the bottom can work to more fully operationalize compliance.
  2. 95% of the work is done at this bottom level.
  3. Use HR to come up with a strategy to move compliance into the bottom for more complete operationalization.
