Where does creativity fit into compliance? In more places than you think. Problem-solving, accountability, communication, and connection—they all take creativity.
Join Tom Fox and Ronnie Feldman on Creativity and Compliance, part of the award-winning Compliance Podcast Network.
Ronnie’s company, Learnings and Entertainment, utilizes the entertainment devices that people use to consume information in their everyday, non-work lives and applies them to important topics around compliance and ethics. It is not only about being funny. It is about changing the tone of your compliance communications and messaging to make your compliance program, policies, and resources more accessible.
Today Ronnie and Tom consider the use of Ethics Ambassadors in compliance programs. Influence in compliance plays a pivotal role in cultivating an organization’s ethical culture and is being increasingly recognized as a crucial aspect of compliance programs.
Tom sees this influence proliferating using Ethics Ambassadors within an organization. In his view, these individuals, armed with additional training and resources, can effectively disseminate the message of compliance, thereby enhancing both the compliance function and overall understanding within the organization.
Similarly, Ronnie, a proponent of creative compliance training, stresses the significance of these compliance champions in enhancing influence within a company. Feldman suggests employing engaging and entertaining means, such as videos or interactive sessions, to communicate compliance messages, thereby increasing employee engagement and the overall impact of the compliance efforts. Through their experiences and perspectives, both Fox and Feldman highlight the potential of leveraging influence to foster a more ethical and compliant organizational culture.
