Reviews / Votes

'Hess's work bridges the gap between high-level principles and operational implementation. His seven elements of an effective compliance programme [...] offer a blueprint for educators and practitioners alike, while case studies like the Milgram experiments and Boeing's safety failures provide concrete contexts for discussing ethical leadership failures. The centrepiece of the book is its seamless transition between many disciplines like law, management and behavioural ethics.' -- Debadatta Bose, Business and Human Rights Journal 'David Hess has done a masterful job in providing a strong overview of what corporate compliance is and why it matters for organizations. This book will be helpful for students, young attorneys, new board members, and those looking to transition to a role in compliance.' -- Veronica Root Martinez, Duke Law School, USA 'This book weaves together law, psychology, and management to provide a deep dive into the history and current state of the compliance function in business.
