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 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. Today Ronnie and Tom are joined by Len Larsen, Manager, Ethics and Compliance and Cory Macdonald, Learning Manager, Ethics and Compliance. Both are at Starbucks in Ethics and Compliance.  The Ackerman principle of innovate, elevate, and educate was the focus of the conversation between Len & Cory and Tom & Ronnie, on the importance of addressing microaggressions in the workplace. They discussed the need for managers to have the necessary soft skills to have difficult conversations, and the need to create a speak up culture in the workplace. They also discussed the importance of intent versus impact, the need for trust between managers and their employees, and the need for companies to provide role-playing and other training to help managers learn how to have difficult conversations. Finally, they discussed the need for companies to be comfortable with the discomfort of trying something new and be willing to pivot if it doesn't work out.
