Public companies are required to design and implement numerous programs to comply with laws and regulations. These include programs such as import/export, insider trading, anti-corruption, and data protection, to name only a few.

Lawyers and law departments are typically not equipped to utilize the tools and techniques that are often necessary for creating successful outcomes for these programs.

Even though programs that are required by law are often seen as being “mandatory”, they take a particularly strong skill to implement in company cultures where building a consensus is so important.

This webinar will focus on the use of process design, change management and project management in company law departments to create and implement successful compliance programs.

Presenter: David Birk PMP (LinkedIn profile) has been a lawyer for 40 years. Recently retired as general counsel of Avnet, Inc., he implemented numerous compliance projects and programs. Today, David is managing director of Black Belt Compliance, LLC, a consulting firm that assists public companies in designing and implementing compliance programs. He is manager of PMI’s Legal Community of Practice.

The business environment has been evolving over the last several decades because of many factors including a volatile economy, growth in technology, increased competition and demanding customers and shareholders.

Companies are also taking larger bets with technology as a means of competitive advantage. The result has been a rise in large and complex programs for many companies. These programs usually span many years, cost millions or even tens or hundreds of millions of dollars to run, involve many people from across the organization and usually also include vendors and partners from other companies.

While programs are getting larger and more complex, at the same time the success rate of programs remains low.

In order to manage programs in this environment, it is imperative to take a “consultative approach” to running them. A consultative approach involves managing these programs with a core set of guiding principles and utilizing them across every function of the program.

Kerry Wills will define what it means to take a consultative approach by identifying the eight key guiding principles and then propose several strategies to enable Program Managers to be successful in the new landscape by applying them to their programs.

Presenter: Kerry Wills PMP (LinkedIn profile) climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2000. He spent months designing his approach, preparing the equipment, training for endurance and executing the plan. His impressive Keynote address Summitting Mt. Kilimanjaro: A Project Management Case Study (1 Cat A – more info) has presented to many PMI® Chapters and is available as a recorded session from ITMPI.
