Portland, Ore. – April 9, 2025 – For two decades, Compliance Week has gathered the brightest minds in governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) to advance corporate integrity. This year, as Compliance Week celebrates its 20th anniversary, NAVEX Chief Risk and Compliance Officer, and inaugural winner of Compliance Week’s Lifetime Achievement Award, Carrie Penman, will take center stage to share her insights on the evolving compliance landscape and the future of corporate accountability.

Penman’s extensive experience and forward-thinking approach make her a trusted voice in the industry. At this year’s conference, Penman will contribute to two key general sessions that tackle pressing challenges facing compliance leaders today: 

The New Whistleblower Landscape: What’s Next for Internal & External Reporting?

April 28, 2025 | 3:00 PM-4:00 PM ET
Whistleblower hotlines are evolving. With shifting enforcement priorities and expanding reward programs, compliance leaders are expected to adapt. Penman will lead a panel of former government enforcement experts to explore trends in external reporting as well as from NAVEX’s 2025 Hotline and Incident Management Benchmarking Report, helping organizations predict risks, enhance reporting channels, and proactively address regulatory changes. 

Assessing Effectiveness: Do the 30-Year-Old Federal Sentencing Guidelines Still Work?
 
April 29, 2025 | 9:45 AM-11:00 AM ET
Penman will go head-to-head in a spirited debate on whether the 30-year-old Federal Sentencing Guidelines still meet the needs of modern compliance programs. She will make the case for why today’s complex risk environment still relies on, and needs, the foundational principles set forth in the Guidelines to drive corporate accountability frameworks around the world.

As compliance programs grow more complex, Penman’s insights will enlighten leaders on the importance of data-driven strategies which drive a culture of accountability. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from one of the industry’s most influential voices.
