What you’ll learn on this podcast episode
It’s no secret that writing a code of conduct doesn’t change your company culture overnight. It’s important to develop training that educates your employees on what’s included in your code and how those elements apply to their day-to-day work. But how can you do that in a way that makes your code dynamic and accessible? On this Principled Podcast episode, host Jim Walton talks to Chris Dunstan, the Chief Compliance Officer & Group General Counsel at SPX Flow, about how the company tailored its code of conduct training to reflect the responsibilities of employees better while also keeping the material interactive and connected to its evolved brand. The training has received enthusiastic industry recognition, winning gold at this year’s Brandon Hall Awards for Best Advance in Compliance Training. More importantly, the training has reached a record-high completion rate across SPX Flow’s global offices.
