5. The Role of CCOs in the Past and Present
Almost 30 years have passed since the Federal Sentencing
Guidelines for Organizations came into existence, serving as a
catalyst for the creation of ethics and compliance programs that
can help prevent and detect violations of law, in 1991.
Back then, an effective E&C program was defined as an
organization that:
1. Exercises due diligence to prevent and detect criminal
conduct
2. Promotes an organizational culture that encourages ethical
conduct and a commitment to compliance with the law.

11. The Challenges of Being a CCO today
Source: The State of Ethics and Compliance in the Workplace 2018 (ECI)
13. Challenges: Time and Attention
“Today's workforce is inundated with communication from all
sides. An effective CCO needs to cut through that crowded
communications space to grab their audience's attention and
deliver an impactful and practical message. I only see this
becoming more important over time.”
– Seth Rice, AGC and Global Director, Ethics and Compliance at Kennametal
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
14. Challenges: Business Savvy
“To be truly effective as an ethics and compliance professional,
you need to know the business. What are the most important
risks for your business? What challenges, both internal and
external, is your organization facing? What external
requirements must you meet? What kind of culture does your
organization have?”
– Melissa Stapleton Barnes, SVP, Enterprise Risk Management and Chief Ethics and
Compliance Officer for Eli Lilly and Company
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
15. Challenges: Compliance Fatigue
“I think one of the biggest challenges for compliance
professionals today is finding creative ways to avoid
‘compliance fatigue’ – we have to be relentless and tireless in
acting as ‘evangelists’ for our Codes, and for ethics and
compliance. Also, in a very practical sense, facing the
physical challenges of a global role that can call for extensive
travel, late night calls, and presentations where you are
constantly delivering at a very high level of intensity.”
- Ana-Paola Capaldo, Director of Ethics and Compliance at Tech Data
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
16. Challenges: Trust and Transparency
“Compliance officers have to live this philosophy and ‘walk
the talk.’ This may be challenging, as the message is easy,
but its execution is not always. There are pressures and
temptations in every market. Only if I understand the
business and these circumstances, will employees perceive
me as a trusted adviser who can work with them to find
solutions to a particular challenge.”
- Patrick Henz, Compliance Officer for Primetals Technologies
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
17. Challenges: Reach and Influence
“The most challenging part is that nagging fear that I
could be doing more to penetrate the organization and
reach the masses. I’m always looking for ways to have
a greater impact.”
- Samantha Kelen, Lead Ethics Analyst at Duke Energy
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
18. Challenges: Meaningful Impact
“The most challenging part of my job is to avoid destroying
the playground. Employees perform best when they do their
work for the pure enjoyment of it. When compliance must
restrict this enjoyment by imposing policies, training,
controls, and audits, it must do so by minimizing the impact
on performance. The best way to minimize this impact is to
ensure that employees understand why we restrict specific
activities.”
- Yan Tougas, Global Ethics & Compliance Officer at United Technologies Corp.

20. The Rewards of Being a CCO
The relationship between
an E&C program and the
culture of an organization
is critical, and the data is
clear.
A genuine effort by an
organization to address
E&C can have a
substantial effect on the
overall strength of the
E&C culture and
outcomes.

21. Rewards: Fostering a Culture of Integrity
“We ask people to take our medicines at some of the most
vulnerable times in their lives; therefore, everything we say
and do, and every decision we make, must be made with
integrity. So, the work we do to help foster a culture of
integrity throughout the company is key to our mission - and
that is particularly rewarding.”
- Melissa Stapleton Barnes, Senior Vice President, Enterprise Risk Management and
Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer for Eli Lilly and Company
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
22. Rewards: Practical Solutions to Real Problems
“The most rewarding parts are when I can contribute a
practical solution to a problem and help the business
do the important work of creating diagnostics in the
healthcare space. I also find it incredibly rewarding
when my team's work is acknowledged as practical,
helpful, and fun.”
- Virginia MacSuibhne, Chief Compliance Officer for Roche Molecular Solutions
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
23. Rewards: Problem Solving
“My favorite parts of my work, both former and
current, are when I am able to help solve problems
and when I am able to show people new ways of
thinking about things. I love diagnosing problems,
coming up with solutions, and getting people to the
“Aha!” moments.
– Hui Chen, Global Ethics & Compliance Consultant
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
24. Rewards: Growth and Sustainability
“By far the most rewarding part of my job is helping people
to see that ethics and compliance is not just the right thing
to do, but that it also directly supports the sustainable near
and long-term growth of the organization. People and
customers want to work for and buy from companies with
integrity and purpose. I get recharged each time I have the
privilege of watching this transformation in a colleague.”
- Seth Rice, Assistant General Counsel and Global Director, Ethics and Compliance
at Kennametal

25. Looking Ahead: Technology and Compliance
“Artificial Intelligence will open up new opportunities to
automate standard processes, such as contract reviews. AI
will also offer additional services like chatbots, which could be
used as a potential compliance app. The big question to
discuss is which corporate function should ensure that
tomorrow’s AI decisions are based on values, guidelines, and
laws? Due to its experience, it should be the Ethics and
Compliance department!”
- Patrick Henz, Compliance Officer for Primetals Technologies
Source: Six Questions with an Ethics and Compliance Officer (SAI Global)
26. Looking Ahead: Culture and Compliance
“After nearly a quarter of a century studying employee
perspectives of ethics in the workplace, ECI has proven that if
companies do not take the steps that improve their workplace
cultures, conduct among employees will decline. In light of the
worsening of two key indicators (pressure and retaliation),
along with the status quo of organizational culture, trouble
may be ahead.”
- The State of Ethics & Compliance in the Workplace 2018 ECI

27. Looking Ahead: Compliance as a Differentiator
“As the trend toward ever-escalating financial penalties for
compliance violations continues to rise, one business reality
is becoming clear. In the future, the most successful
businesses will not only be the best at generating revenue,
but also the best at compliance, so they can retain their
profits by avoiding mega fines and other significant
compliance sanctions like plant closures and forced product
withdrawals.”

Culture: Why It’s Vital, How It’s Done, by the SCCE
