Johnson provides insights on effective leadership in compliance and ethics
University of Phoenix shares that McCeil Johnson, J.D., vice president of Accreditation and Regulatory Compliance, is a speaker at the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics® (SCCE®) Alaska Regional Compliance & Ethics Conference, held virtually February 23, 2023, an educational event providing guidance and insights from experienced compliance and ethics professionals. Johnson will co-present on the topic, “Vulnerability is Crucial to the Algorithm of Good Leadership.”
“Effective leadership in compliance and ethics engages and supports employees and operations across an organization,” states Johnson. “Vulnerability is not a weakness; leaders need to bring authenticity and a degree of vulnerability to connect and convey clarity and purpose. I look forward to sharing insights as part of a constructive discussion at this conference.”
As part of their mission to support the compliance and ethics community, SCCE® offers over 45 educational events a year, providing guidance and insights from experienced compliance and ethics professionals. Event participants can earn Compliance Certification Board (CCB)® continuing education units.
