Positivity and Compliance

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 riff on why it is important to bring positivity to your compliance program and your role as a compliance professional. Positivity in compliance is a crucial aspect that can significantly transform the perception and effectiveness of compliance programs. It involves shifting the image of compliance professionals from being restrictive to being business enablers who collaborate with other departments to achieve ethical business goals. Two notable figures who have extensively discussed this topic are Tom Fox and Ronnie Feldman. Tom believes that a positive, solution-oriented approach can change the often negative perception associated with compliance. He emphasizes the importance of presenting compliance as a business enabler and a partner in achieving business goals. Ronnie also advocates for a positive and engaging attitude in compliance work. He underscores the significance of communication and interaction, suggesting that a positive tone from leadership can improve the overall compliance program. Both Fox and Feldman's perspectives are shaped by their extensive experience in the field, and they both agree that integrating positivity into all aspects of compliance can foster a more collaborative and respectful relationship with employees.
