How to effectively leverage new technologies and approaches to engage your workforce on ethics and compliance
Engaging your media-savvy employees around the globe can be challenging. Thanks to major advances in adult learning theory and cognition, we know more about how the mind absorbs and retains information. Explore several key principles to help you determine how to leverage new technologies that engage workers on ethics and compliance topics in new, innovative ways. How to bring your code of conduct to life
Simply having a code of conduct doesn’t guarantee that employees will comply with it, or even that they will understand the issues driving it. So how can an organization turn its code of conduct into a relevant, engaging guide that inspires a workforce toward principled behavior? What type of content and language can win over pessimistic or cynical workers who view such a code as unnecessary, restrictive or even irrelevant? How to create an effective ethics and compliance education program
The Amended Organizational Sentencing Guidelines for Executive Management provides a broad perspective of the Guidelines along with points to consider in assessing the effectiveness of a company’s ethics and compliance program, corporate culture and business practices. How to educate your workforce on the new federal rules regulating electronic discovery
The amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure regulating electronic discovery (e-discovery) have gone into effect as of December 1, 2006. These are some of the most profound changes to the federal rules in decades and directly focus on “electronically stored information” (ESI) and its discoverability in all federal lawsuits. Five key issues are important to understand about how these rules impact records management, controls and policies in companies. Suggested actions are provided to help ensure that your organization properly educates employees about the rules in order to remain in compliance with them. The impact of codes of conduct on corporate culture
Companies have been writing codes of business conduct for decades, but the role they play in shaping corporate culture is changing dramatically. This paper assesses the impact of codes of conduct and code education on corporate cultures. It suggests ways that organizations can improve the effectiveness of their code programs, with specific examples drawn from successful codes implemented in a variety of companies. The LRN approach to ethics and compliance education
Educating employees about ethics and compliance is a fundamental component in developing ethical corporate cultures. An effective education program teaches employees not only to understand the letter of the laws governing their work, but to adopt the spirit of those laws in their daily actions and decisions. An ethics and compliance education program that engages employees in becoming stewards of their corporate values promotes a workplace of accountability that reduces the risks of wrongdoing and promulgates responsible business conduct. This paper reviews LRN’s approach to workforce education, highlighting nine key features that distinguish our courses. Particular emphasis is placed on showing how LRN education is based on the leading models of cognitive psychology, instructional design and adult learning practices. |
