A Grand Experiment
Lessons in Compliance From the COVID-19 Pandemic
Monday, May 09, 2022, 1pm
EDT
Event Overview
When a deadly global pandemic broke out, compliance — the act of following rules — became critical. Yet many people didn’t adhere to the rules. If compliance in “life or death” situations like COVID-19 is deemed optional, how can organizations expect employees to follow their rules?
In this webcast, lawyer and compliance expert Richard John explores the COVID-19 pandemic as a global compliance experiment, using its lessons to relate back to the dynamics that organizations encounter every day. Far from being a tedious exercise, Professor John explains how getting people to work together and follow rules takes careful thought and work, and that compliance inside businesses and organizations is essential to accomplishing just about anything.
