To leave a legacy of operational excellence in compliance is what Global Chief Compliance Officer, Strategic Leader, and Partner at StoneTurn Jonathon Kellerman hopes to achieve in this dynamic industry. He has been at the forefront of the evolution of compliance programs in health care, life sciences, and pharmaceuticals with over 25 years of experience in compliance strategy, program development and execution; controls design; operational excellence; risk assessment and mitigation; complex investigations; and negotiating and managing government settlements. Major takeaways discussed in the episode: ✔️ Glean lessons from Jonathon's unique journey starting a health care compliance practice that served as the first in the industry. His experience in a consulting practice helped health care providers with complex compliance challenges. ✔️ Traditional compliance has been limited by the rigid standards around an audit mentality. Jonathon shares that the focus on looking at transactions in silos instead of the holistic approach of looking at data over time is what's made compliance programs from being truly effective. ✔️ Compliance programs limiting themselves to the standard practice of risk management will risk being irrelevant in future companies. ✔️ The COVID-19 pandemic broke barriers and accelerated digital transformation. Every company does it to some extent in utilizing digital platforms and data that opens up new ways of rethinking our traditional engagements. ✔️ Advanced technologies use data and digital platforms that create a new type of risk. But it also means that more than ever, there's a lot of pressure put on companies to operate quickly and very efficiently. ✔️ The skills needed for the compliance professionals of the future is something never taught in law school. Jonathon emphasizes that an individual in the compliance space must speak business language, have trust and credibility, and be willing to think outside the box. ____________________________________________________________________ Jonathon L.
