The Compliance Life details the journey to and in the role of a Chief Compliance Officer. How does one come to sit in the CCO chair? What are some of the skills a CCO needs to success navigate the compliance waters in any company? What are some of the top challenges CCOs have faced and how did they meet them? These questions and many others will be explored in this new podcast series. Over four episodes each month on The Compliance Life, I visit with one current or former CCO to explore their journey to the CCO chair. This month, my guest is Kim Yapchai, the Chief Counsel - Environmental, Social &amp; Governance at Tenneco Inc. This encompasses both compliance and sustainability. Kim calls herself a “businessperson with a law degree” and she has had a distinguished career in the in-house world. She held in-house positions at Ford Motor Credit Company and Masco before moving to Whirlpool to become the company’s first Chief Compliance Officer. From there she moved to Tenneco to the CCO chair and then into her current role. Further, she is the company’s first Chief Sustainability Officer. In this role, she is working to improve transparency of information shared with stakeholders, set goals, and promote the use of that information by investors, customers, and others. Kim has received numerous awards include the prestigious Top Minds in Compliance Award from Compliance Week. In this second episode, we take up the in-house roles In Kim held on her journey towards the CCO chair. At Masco she was given the compliance portfolio and this was her first exposure to corp compliance. She was determined to “take the groan out of compliance” and did so by using humor and storytelling in compliance training. Kim said that employees that are engaged by and with compliance become ambassadors for compliance. At Masco as her first exposure to compliance on the international stage as well, learning you need to leave room to tailor compliance to local culture. Learn more about your ad choices.
