In this episode of Creativity and Compliance, hosts Tom Fox and Ronnie Feldman discuss the often overlooked basics of creating an effective compliance program. We emphasize the importance of being proactive and preventative, as reinforced by recent DOJ guidance. The focus shifts from complex compliance issues to more practical and efficient solutions that can be integrated into daily operations. One key point is reevaluating the traditional annual training approach, which often fails to engage employees and mitigate risks efficiently. Instead, the conversation centers around constant and regular communication, such as nudge learning and embedding compliance messages within the organization's culture, to keep compliance top of mind and foster a more compliant workplace environment.
