To ensure that a compliance program is truly effective, it is necessary to pause from time to time and reassess. The COVID‑19 pandemic offered many companies the opportunity to pause – voluntarily or not – but created other barriers to program assessment, namely, the inability to meet with employees face-to-face to gain their feedback. Jacki Cheslow, global compliance leader at IEEE, was undaunted by these limitations. In a recent interview with the Anti-Corruption Report, she explained how she worked with a compliance consultant to perform an entirely remote program assessment with very satisfying results.
