Culture of Compliance

• Creating a Culture of Compliance is not always easy, but it can be done with the right mix of strategy, strong leadership, programs and tools, and personnel training. This is critical to the success of today's energy and utility companies.
• Special focus on corrective action.

Guest Speaker: Doug McCracken

• Recent blackouts in Florida and Arizona have highlighted the need for registered entities to manage their efforts beyond NERC standards compliance tracking. Strengthen your company's compliance resume by integrating human performance, corrective actions, self assessments, benchmarking, and work observations with your existing compliance program. These componenets can improve compliance and operational performance, while satisfying auditors evaluating a company's culture of compliance.
