Join Micron’s Steven Chen to hear the story behind building a regional Compliance Week “machine”—from planning and partnerships to on-site execution, virtual reality engagement, and ambassadors who keep the program alive after the booths come down.
In this episode, Sven Peterson, Vice President of Compliance, Ethics, & Regulatory Services, and Corporate Compliance & Ethics Officer at Premera Blue Cross, explains how pursuing “ethics as a team sport” has been instrumental in advancing training and communications, developing a highly effective Compliance & Ethics Champion program, and strengthening monitoring and control functions.
Consistency, transparency, and integrity are at the heart of a strong investigations program. In this session, hear how ADM translated those values into practice by centralizing its investigations approach and introducing six key process improvements. From new protocols and a global disciplinary matrix to creative tools for reinforcing lessons learned, this presentation offers practical insights for compliance leaders seeking to modernize their own investigations programs.
This session, led by Allianz Life’s Steve Koslow and Jeanne Sherod, will explore the critical role managers play as culture carriers, translating organizational values into everyday experiences while safeguarding against gradual culture erosion. Allianz Life has built a prototype manager assessment tool to help measure and mature behaviors linked to ethical culture and psychological safety. By employing a maturity model and value-based criteria, this initiative aims to reinforce speak-up environments, accountability, and continuous improvement across leadership levels. Learn how structured assessments and regular manager dialogues are strategically preventing culture drift, fostering a resilient ethical framework without fear or resistance. This session promises to offer valuable insights and practical strategies for organizations committed to cultivating a robust ethical culture. Don’t miss the opportunity to explore these groundbreaking methodologies and contribute to shaping the future of ethical leadership.
Board time is scarce, attention is limited, and trust earned over years may be lost in moments. In this session, we’ll ground the CECO’s board engagement strategy in first principles: the board’s role in ethics and compliance and how CECOs can enable effective oversight. We’ll then focus on how to use board time intentionally—through sharper materials, smarter metrics, and more compelling narratives—to build trust and credibility, educate directors about the business, and ensure ethics and compliance discussions are impactful rather than box-checking exercises.
Gather in small groups and Ethisphere will walk you through facilitated networking conversations that build on the data presentation given by our data experts.
Volatility, geopolitical tension, social division, and rapid technology shifts have changed what psychological safety means at work. In this session, Erica Salmon Byrne and Laura Jacobus will explore how expectations have evolved, and why psychological safety is now a core element of an effective ethics and compliance program. They will dig into how Gen Z is redefining acceptable norms for speaking up, how personal and organizational values either reinforce or erode safety, and how psychological safety underpins organizational resiliency when pressure is high. The discussion will also cover practical indicators of low psychological safety, the usefulness and limits of anonymous surveys, and concrete actions leaders can take to create a climate where employees raise concerns early, trust the process, and stay engaged through disruption.
Current Ethisphere clients are invited to bring your own device and work with an Ethisphere expert to fill out a section of the Ethics Quotient or learn more about how to use your data in the Sphere.
