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 people use to consume information in their everyday, non-work lives and apply it 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. In this episode of Creativity and Compliance, host Tom Fox and Ronnie Feldman are joined by Jim Webb, SVP, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary at Continental Resources.
The trio explores unique approaches to making compliance training engaging and effective. Jim shares his journey from delivering dry, academic training in private practice to implementing creative and interactive compliance training methods in-house. He emphasizes the importance of making training enjoyable and relatable to drive real behavioral change among employees. The discussion also touches on integrating frequent and varied compliance messages into the organizational culture, taking cues from successful safety training methods.
Listeners will learn how short, engaging snippets of information can be more effective than long, infrequent training sessions. Jim also discusses the positive impact of these strategies on employee engagement and the overall compliance culture. The episode provides practical tips for compliance professionals looking to innovate and improve their training programs to achieve better compliance outcomes.
