Alison Taylor on the Intersection of CSR and Compliance


Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley. Like Compliance, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an area which has had an increasing spotlight over the past few years.  As a result, both of these functions have evolved and are more aligned in the past.  In this episode, Lisa Fine visits with Alison Taylor. One of the trailblazers in this area is Alison Taylor, who is the Executive Director of Ethical Systems,  a Senior Advisor at BSR and an adjunct professor at NYU Stern School of Business.
Alison joins Lisa Fine on Great Women in Compliance to discuss CSR and Compliance, how they intersect, and where there may be tensions between them.  They discuss how ethics and ethical behavior are the underpinnings of both areas and how this becomes even more important in times like now, with COVID-19.
Alison has worked all over the world and discusses her experiences as a woman in some of her roles, including what she wishes she knew when she started out.
This episode was released the week prior to Compliance Week, where Lisa is on a panel that Alison is moderating called Week. “The CCO & CSR: The Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on Compliance Programs.”  Compliance Week has been a great supporter of women in compliance (as well as the podcast), and now they have introduced us to another #GWIC.

Jared Connors on Supply Chain During Coronavirus


Welcome to the newest addition to the Compliance Podcast Network, Compliance and Coronavirus. As the Voice of Compliance, I wanted to start a podcast which will help to bring both clarity and sanity to the compliance practitioner and compliance profession during this worldwide health and healthcare crisis. In this episode, I am joined by Jared Connor, Subject Matter Expert on CSR for Assent Compliance. We discuss how expectations of compliance will continue during this health crisis.
This year marks the transition period as companies prepare for expanded Responsible Minerals initiative. While key events that were scheduled for this spring have now been cancelled, that does not mean that Responsible Minerals reporting expectations are going away.  How can companies understand these changes in reporting and enhanced due diligence expectations without the education and key stakeholder engagement these events provide?  The winter of 2021 may well have companies all over the globe scrambling to play catch up and taking some all too costly reputational hits in the market.
