Hui Chen is a luminary in the world of Ethics and Compliance, and she is our guest on today's episode of Great Women in Compliance. Today, Hui is one of the co-founders of CDE Advisors, which stands for “Culture. Data. Ethics.” Most of us know Hui from her work at the Department of Justice (DOJ) and her contributions to the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance for the Fraud Section. However, my career path included being a prosecutor, in-house compliance work, and even being inspired to pursue a Master's degree in Divinity after the 9/11 attacks. Hui discusses the origins of the ECCP and her perspective on its current use. She also discusses the opportunity in the “FCPA pause” and how organizations can broaden their ethical considerations beyond foreign bribery to focus on relationships with all stakeholders. She discussed how the focus on regulatory guidance, particularly on bribery outside the United States, is just one of many areas to consider as a compliance professional.  She also offers practical advice based on her experiences working with global compliance functions and the lessons she has learned.

Anne Bradstreet was a young Puritan woman with ink-stained fingers and a heart full of dreams. Growing up in 17th-century England, she found solace in her father's library. Anne felt a God-given calling to express herself through poetry. Her faith grew stronger after a battle with smallpox as a teenager. The suffering drew her closer to God.Anne married Simon Bradstreet, a man of wisdom and quiet strength. He saw the gift God had placed within her and encouraged her to write.Together, they journeyed to the New World, settling in the rugged wilderness of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Anne clung to her faith and found comfort in poetry. She poured her heart onto parchment. To her, Anne's words were an act of worship.Then came the fire that consumed her home. All her family's earthly possessions were turned to ash. But rather than letting grief consume her, Anne turned to God. Through her sorrow, she penned verses of trust and surrender. Her resilience and unwavering faith became a light to many. Soon, her brother-in-law took Anne's poetry to England, where it was published, making her the first published female poet in America. Though she never sought fame, her words carried weight, offering insight into faith, perseverance, and the unique struggles of womanhood in a rigid Puritan society.As the years passed, Anne remained devoted to writing, using her gift to leave a legacy of faith.

In the tumultuous period following Joshua's death, Israel faced oppression under King Jabin and his general Sisera for 20 years. During this time of spiritual decline, God raised up Deborah as both prophetess and judge over Israel. When God chose Barak to lead the army, he refused to go without Deborah, leading her to step forward with remarkable courage despite it not being her intended role. Her faith and leadership proved crucial in Israel's victory.The story takes an unexpected turn when Sisera, fleeing from defeat, seeks refuge in Jael's tent. Though a Gentile woman, Jael courageously fulfilled God's prophecy through her bold actions. These two women exemplify how God uses unlikely people to accomplish His purposes through courageous faith. Their story teaches vital lessons about confronting fear, dealing decisively with evil, and trusting completely in God's plan, even when it seems improbable. Their examples challenge us to identify areas where fear holds us back and to take bold steps forward in faith. First Baptist Church depends on faithful and generous giving.

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance podcast with Hemma Lomax and Lisa Fine, sponsored by Corporate Compliance Insights.   In today's episode, Lisa speaks with Karen Bertha, who has built world-class programs throughout her career, most recently at V2X.   She has significant acquisition and post-acquisition due diligence expertise, including at V2X.  After that acquisition, she was at a crossroads and needed time to take stock and pause. Karen reflects on her work with due diligence, including how and when compliance should be involved in due diligence.  They also discuss strategies for post-integration, even if compliance is brought at some point later.  Karen has worked in highly regulated industries, such as government contracting, and those not in highly regulated industries. She shares her experiences and lessons learned. Karen left V2X after the acquisition when she needed time for herself and other parts of her life.  She talks about how the “power of the pause” has been helpful to her.  She talks about reflecting on her work in the Ethics & Compliance profession, increasing her learning, specifically in compliance-adjacent fields like Human Resources and audit, with time to focus.  She also shares what she has enjoyed during this time, which we at #GWIC hope can inspire those thinking about your next steps or between roles.

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance podcast with Hemma Lomax and Lisa Fine, sponsored by Corporate Compliance Insights.  GWIC goes in a different direction today with a cross-post with Everything Compliance. Welcome to the only roundtable podcast in compliance as we celebrate our second century of shows. A few months ago Everything Compliance had a Special Edition episode with some of the Great Women in Compliance, hosted by Kristy Grant-Hart. The episode was so popular (and the host and guests had so much fun) everyone involved decided to make it a quarterly event and cross-post it on GWIC. In today's episode, is a cross posts of Everything Compliance (Q4-GWIC edition) and is hosted by Kristy Grant-Hart, and the guest panelists include Karen Moore, Lisa Fine and Hemma Lomax.  Host Kristy Grant-Hart takes a deep dive into meeting recording and note-taking services, and why you need to disable these default settings. She shouts out to her hometown LA Dodgers for winning the World Series and she rants about one of her favorite stores, Williams-Sonoma playing holiday music before Halloween. Karen Moore looks at Modern Slavery. She rave about United Airlines and their unending stream of communications. Lisa Fine takes a deep dive into the RTX settlements. In her Raves and Rants segment, she has a rant and a rave. First after noting she cannot play Christmas music more than two weeks before Thanksgiving, she rants about vendors pushing compliance officers to use budget in Q4 and she raves about her hometown Buffalo Bills. Hemma Lomax goes into a deep exploration of the recent termination of multiple EY personnel for taking multiple trainings at the same time.

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance podcast with Hemma Lomax and Lisa Fine, sponsored by Corporate Compliance Insights. Over the past few months, the Department of Justice put forth the Whistleblower Pilot Program, and the update to the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs. It was the perfect time to focus on how these impact whistleblower laws. Jane Norberg, who is a partner at Arnold & Porter and the former Chief of the Office of the Whistleblower and Mary Inman, who is a founding partner of Whistleblower Partners. Mary is also an advocate for the power of whistleblowers and is known for representing Facebook Files whistleblower Frances Haugen and Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz. They provide insight into what makes a credible and legitimate whistleblower, how the SEC reviews tips from whistleblowers and what we as compliance professionals can do to build effective programs. All focused on the review of all concerns that are raised, regardless of the source. They provide some thoughts about how to handle different situations before, during, and after an investigation, providing practical advice. The group discusses the new DOJ Whistleblower Pilot program and where it follows the past programs like the SEC program and where it is filling new gaps. One part of the program includes the 120-day requirement for reporting an issue, and they focused on what that would mean for organizations. Mary and Jane share their views on the requirements and the best practices and reference how most compliance professionals are using the DOJ Evaluation of Corporate Compliance to develop their programs, which means that an issue is investigated. In practical terms, following the ECCP requirement to investigate, and the pilot program has a “race to report,” is a challenge, and this is discussed in depth. Mary and Jane both provided “one thing you should know” to conclude the discussion. Both points are significant ones for anyone who is dealing with any point of the whistleblower or building a strong speak up/anti-retaliation culture.

This episode is a rare opportunity for #teamgwic to catch up in person at one of the key Ethics & Compliance events, the SCCE Compliance & Ethics Institute (CEI). CEI was in Grapevine, Texas, and, as usual, was a great experience. In this episode, Lisa, Hemma, Ellen and Sarah discussed their highlights from the event. The first keynote was from Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Nicole M. Argentieri, who announced revisions to the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs, and the group touches on this and the significance of the changes and having them announced at SCCE. There will be much more to come on this topic. Each of the women discusses their favorite panels and some of the key takeaways they had, including discussions of DEI, controls, and how to work with Boards, as a few examples. They also sent their well-wishes to Nick Gallo, who was missed but, more importantly, is on the road to recovery. One of the best parts of the conference is the opportunity to network and share best practices, and the whole group thought this year's exhibit hall, and the format of the conference with longer breaks, allowed people to make great connections and have some in-depth discussions that don't always happen when you are moving so quickly to not make a panel or event. And the second morning keynote from Matt Friedman discussing his work in fighting human trafficking and modern slavery was moving and inspirational, a reminder of the importance of what we do every day with our due diligence and knowing our customers. All in all, it was a great week of connections, learning and providing so much optimism for the contributions that ethics and compliance professionals make, and to connect (or reconnect) with the amazing people in our community. If you were not able to attend, the team hopes this gives you a sense of the event. #GWIC is proud to announce that it has been nominated for the WomenInPodcastAwards.

The recent Boeing plea agreement has led to many discussions about the role of victims in negotiated settlements, and today we have one of the top academic experts on the SEC and financial securities regulation, Karen Woody. Karen is an associate professor at Washington & Lee School of Law. Karen and Lisa discuss why the Boeing case is a good example of who the victims are because the victims suffered a tragedy. However, many other white-collar cases (we hope) are not as clear - especially in the FCPA bribery context, and what avenues of relief that others have, particularly in the international context.  Lisa and Karen also follow on the prior episode's discussion of internal controls, particularly in light of the Solarwinds case. They talk about whether internal controls are the appropriate way for the SEC to pursue certain claims, such as cybersecurity or in a bribery case, and whether they should be limited to accounting provisions and whether other controls would be more appropriate, and if they don't exist, should they? Karen also shares her journey into academia and gives some practical tips for those who are interested in teaching and how to be resilient when one hits roadblocks.#GWIC is proud to announce that it has been nominated for the WomenInPodcastAwards.  This is a people's choice award and whether you vote for #GWIC or other nominees we ask that you send the elevator back down by voting. Voting opens August 1, 2024, and details can be found on the #GWIC Linkedin page at http://www.linkedin.com/groups/12156164 Resources Join the Great Women in Compliance community on LinkedIn here.

We emphasize the importance of "understanding the business," in Ethics & Compliance, which is absolutely critical to our success. One of the topics we discuss less frequently is how to work with other control functions, one of which is internal controls.  Lisa is speaking about this topic at the SCCE CEI with Matt Kelly from Radical Compliance. In advance of the conference, Lisa and Ellen Hunt co-hosted a roundtable discussion with Matt Kelly from Radical Compliance, and Sarah Lawrence, Sr. Director of Internal Controls at Pearson.  In this episode, they discuss the history and purpose of internal controls and SOX, how they evolved and how they work today. In particular, they focus on what is financial materiality vs what E&C sees as areas for controls.

Tune in to hear the powerful origin stories of two great women in compliance who have been moved to drive significant impact in this space, from enterprising business solutions, to innovative learning and development strategies, to thoughtful approaches to measuring culture and employee sentiment as a measure of success.  Highlights include the ways in which listening builds trust, how to measure impact, not activity, how to achieve integrated risk management, how to design your employee training with employee experience and employee sentiment in mind, and despite our aspirational claims to be building a strong speak up culture, how our employees will always be the actual arbiter of our success.  You can learn more about Roxanne and Susan's work at www.ethena.com.  Biographies ‍Roxanne Petraeus is the CEO and Co-Founder of Ethena, a compliance training platform startup with intuitive and powerful admin tools that make required training easy, engaging, and effective.  Roxanne previously consulted for McKinsey, and before that, she was an officer in the US Army. She found that no matter the setting, whether consulting or in the military, there remained an opportunity to make compliance training better. She started Ethena in 2019 with Co-Founder Anne Solmssen.  Ethena enjoys incredibly positive word of mouth within the HR community, and is trusted by thousands of companies like Figma, Notion, Noom, Pinterest, and Carta to provide actionable training. And the employees love it: Ethena has a 93% positive rating, and over 2M positive reviews. Roxanne is a natural leader, and her eagerness to question and reinvent old paradigms is at the heart of Ethena's ascendance. Susan Frank Divers serves as an advisor to Ethena, Inc., an all-in-one compliance training platform that helps companies create more ethical and inclusive work cultures. Prior to joining Ethena, she was the director of thought leadership and best practices for LRN Corporation for seven years.

This expertise includes building state-of-the-art compliance and training programs, designing user-friendly means of engaging and informing employees, fostering an embedded culture of compliance, and sharing substantial subject matter expertise in anti-corruption, export controls, sanctions, and other key areas of compliance.
