Corporate monitorships have been in the news a lot lately. From the Department of Justice’s decision to terminate the Glencore monitorship early; to months of headlines about a proposed monitorship associated with Boeing’s guilty plea in the 737 Max criminal case. And so, in this episode of The Better Way?, Zach and Hui, along with special guest Todd Haugh, an associate professor at Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business, ask, well . . . what the heck is going on!?
They also dive deeper into a recent paper co-authored by Hui and Todd called, “Remaking Monitorships: A First Principles Approach to Monitor Effectiveness.” In their paper, and in this discussion, Todd and Hui make the case for improving, not eliminating, monitorships. Topics include defining monitorships (which is trickier than you might think); the importance of measuring monitor effectiveness; the need for multidisciplinary monitorship teams; and an ongoing debate about diversity, equity, and inclusion in the monitorship space.

Finally, our first guest in the new era of The Better Way? podcast! In this episode, Hui and Zach are joined by Jutta Williams, an experienced compliance, privacy, and information security officer—and a noted responsible AI evangelist. Jutta shares her deep knowledge of this curious—and misunderstood topic—in the most relatable and accessible way.
Together, they define key terms; explore (some of) the ethical and strategic risks associated with AI; and then, dive deep into a human-centric approach to AI governance—and to the design and validation of AI systems, more broadly. Be sure to stick around for a striking story about the “human cost” of data. Oh, and of course, this also marks the return of the Better Way? questionnaire.

We always try to start with “why.” And over the last ten or so months, we’ve been asked “why?” a lot—why we’ve been on hiatus for so long and why we left our prior firm. In this episode of The Better Way?, we do our best to answer those questions, while also (and more importantly) sharing the foundational “why” behind our new venture.
In addition to talking about data-driven, human-centered, and evidence-based culture, ethics, and compliance, we discuss: entrepreneurship, the importance of timing, building a different type of consultancy (influenced by a combined decades of experience as the client), taking your own advice, and the importance of protecting an idea that you deeply believe in.

It’s many been months since our last episode, but The Better Way? Podcast is back! In this (our sort of first episode), Zach and Hui return with a special—and timely—discussion about the implications of President Trump’s Executive Order pausing FCPA enforcement. They address the role FCPA enforcement has played in the development of corporate compliance programs, generally, and in the creation of a broader FCPA “industrial complex.”
But this is mostly a forward-looking episode. Zach and Hui share go-forward opportunities for ethics and compliance professionals—opportunities to reevaluate their role, push back on fear-based compliance, and become a new kind of business advisor. Above all, though, they make the case that the pause, while among the hottest topics in compliance, is far from the preeminent ethics issue of our time.
