Being promoted from the compliance staff to the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) can be a great moment.  But, it’s the start of a new era professionally, one that requires a new set of skills to be successful in the long run.

It’s a topic that Lea Fourkiller, Managing Director at Ankura Consulting, knows well, having risen in compliance to serve as a CCO, and working as a consultant to the compliance community.  In this podcast, she shares her expertise in how to not just have the leadership title, but also succeed as a leader.

Listen in for her insight into:

* The importance of understanding the scope of the new role, and avoiding being pulled back into doing your old job

* Earning the trust and respect of senior leaders

* Demonstrating your leadership skills, especially integrity

* The needs to listen, stay current on laws and regulations and what is going on in the business

* Thinking strategically and becoming a problem solver
