  • Coordinate enterprise Compliance Culture and Program Effectiveness assessments and monitor effectiveness over time.

  • Investigate cultural drivers of misconduct identified through surveys, exit interviews, and case data; translate insights into management actions.

  • Facilitate regular Compliance team meetings to align on priorities, risk updates, and emerging issues; build agendas that balance functional updates with team discussion; incorporate case studies, audit findings, lessons learned, and guest speakers to drive practical application and deeper Company and Compliance knowledge.
