Donna Boehme, an ethics and compliance leader, wrote the Foreword to my new book, and I am honored by her contribution.

As I wrote in my introduction, “My hope is that my contribution can lend some weight to an already significant revolution in corporate governance — the rise of the compliance professional and the dedication of corporate leaders and organizations to ethics and compliance.”

The e-book includes a collection of recent essays and blog posts aimed at encouraging corporate leaders to understand how a culture of compliance is not only the best  best protection against code of conduct and legal violations, but also how such a culture creates sustainable financial benefits to a company and its employees.

The Book Chapters include:

• Embracing the Future – Ethics and Compliance
• CCOs Take Note: It’s the Culture Stupid
• Essential Requirements for an ‘Effective’ Ethics and Compliance Program
• The Value of an Ethical Culture
• Defining an Ethical Leader
• Are Ethical Companies More Profitable
