Innovation in Compliance – America’s Story at 250 with America’s Storyteller, Jeff Gould

Innovation comes in many forms, and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but also embrace it. Today, I visited with Jeff Gould, who is America’s storyteller, on his upcoming project for America’s semi-quincentennial birthday celebration in 2026, America’s Story 250.

Jeff Gould is lauded as America’s storyteller. He is honing the story of America at 250 in 2026 through his project, America at 250. Gould’s perspective on American history is one of profound reverence and recognition for the country’s narrative, viewing it as a remarkable tale among governmental histories.

His perspective is heavily influenced by the opportunities he sees for individuals to combat injustice and foster a fairer system, a theme ingrained in his work with America 250. He places substantial emphasis on acknowledging the flaws and mistakes of historical figures yet concurrently underscores the potential that the country and its people hold for growth and progress. Through this lens, Gould sees American history as a symbol of hope and freedom, and thus, he constantly challenges individuals to uphold and perpetuate these values for future generations.

Key Highlights:

  • Celebrating America’s 250-year Journey
  • Reviving American Heritage Through America’s Story
  • Democratic Ideals: From Tyranny to Resilience
  • Founding Fathers’ Longevity in Constitutional Design
  • Leaders who have shaped American identity throughout history

Ulysses at 100-Lessons for the 21st Century Compliance Professional – Bloomsday and Storytelling


Matt Kelly once challenged me to write a blog post for Bloomsday. Well aware of my great love for Joyce’s magnum opus, I accepted the challenge. This year is the 100th anniversary of the publication of the book. To celebrate this event, James Joyce’s novel at 100 and the compliance profession, I have decided to do a 5-part podcast series on Ulysses. Over this podcast series, I will highlight some of the books and commentary and tie what Joyce, Dublin, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, together with his mentor Stephen Daedalus, can teach the modern compliance professional. I hope you will join me in the short celebration and trip through Dublin 1904 for the 100th anniversary of Bloomsday. In Part 5, Bloomsday and storytelling.
