It’s compliance week with Jim Gill of Hanzo! Earlier this week, Jim provided 5 best practices for compliance professionals!
In the article (How Regulatory Rulings Shape Compliance Best Practices, available here), Jim asks these questions:
- How do you ensure that your business complies with every law, rule, and regulation that governs its operations?
- Are you doing everything you can to write sound policies, monitor compliance, and respond to issues?
- Specifically, how are you keeping your enterprise data safe?
With that in mind, Jim provides 5 best practices for compliance professionals. Here’s one of them:
Stay current and try to anticipate what’s coming.
The landscape of compliance changes constantly. If you wait until a new regulation is passed to learn about what’s happening in your industry or jurisdiction, you’ll be behind in implementing the practices needed to comply.
Making a daily habit of reading a variety of newsfeeds, trade publications, and industry newsletters is a great first step. It’s also important to stay abreast of topics adjacent to your specific focus: regulatory updates, legal rulings, cybersecurity protections, and data privacy rights to name a few.
So, what are the other 4 of 5 best practices for compliance professionals? You’ll have to read his blog post here to find out! It’s just one more click! 😉
So, what do you think? What compliance challenges are you facing? Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
