Compliance Check-up

10 minutes at the leadership table

An uncomfortable question: 

If your compliance system were reviewed tomorrow, could you show what really works?

Try this quick self-assessment:

☐ Do we know our most significant compliance risks?
☐ Do we have an up-to-date Code of Conduct that people actually use?
☐ Do our policies reflect how we operate today?
☐ Do new employees receive compliance onboarding?
☐ Can people raise concerns safely?
☐ Do we carry out regular monitoring or audits?
☐ Does leadership receive meaningful compliance reports that support decisions?


If you’re unsure about several answers, don’t start by writing another policy. 

First, take an honest look at what works in practice and what exists only on paper.
Sometimes ten minutes of leadership attention can be more valuable than another compliance project.
