You know that you need to communicate better and more often on your compliance & ethics program, but every time you want to finally start, something urgent comes up – an investigation, a policy review, a board meeting? So frustrating!
You spend days drafting a new policy, getting the executive team on board, writing an email to everybody and then nobody reads it?
You are not alone!
As a classic cross-functional role that needs to make sure that people play by the rules, it is hard to win everybody’s whole-hearted cooperation.
Nobody wants to be told what to do – especially if they need to focus on their business targets and are already short of time.
Most compliance professionals have not learned how to “sell” or feel uncomfortable about marketing their work.
Without the proper mindset, practical tools and an easy to implement plan, you do not know where to start, feel overwhelmed and the pressure of daily business always wins.
Hello, I am Bettina Palazzo.
I have worked with compliance professionals for 25 years. I know that without the right communication strategy even the best Ethics & Compliance program will not win your people’s hearts and minds and will keep you stuck in feeling overworked and undervalued.
I learned that what actually keeps compliance professionals from finally taking control of their internal communication is that
- they do not think that communication is a priority, if the compliance program is good.
- they think that there is nothing you can do about their unpopular position in the company – it just comes with the role.
- they became used to the frustration of not being heard and valued and are secretly proud of being the lone compliance hero.
- they postpone until they will have finished that urgent investigation, reviewed the Code of Conduct or have a new CEO …. and guess what that moment never comes!
It does not have to be that way!
I developed the “Compliance Influencer” program in which you will get the right tools, learn to apply them step by step and exchange with your peers.
As your guide in this process, I bring a unique combination of skills and experience:
- I have always focused on the leadership, behavior, and culture dimension of Ethics & Compliance. A purely legalistic vision alone will never make compliance communication convincing and engaging.
- I have years of experience in using fun and interactive methods that aim at involving employees and managers.
- I am also a seasoned university lecturer and a prolific writer. I enjoy working with language that reaches people.
The „Compliance Influencer“ Program will show you how you can set up an attractive, engaging and impactful communication strategy in just 5 weeks and become an influencer for E&C in your company that people trust and want to hear from.
These are the results you will get from this program

FAQ
How can I book?
Doors for booking the Compliance Influencer program will open on June 15st. You will receive an email with a booking link if you are on the waiting list. If you are not on the waiting list and want to book, just drop me an email.
I have booked. What happens next?
When you have completed your booking, you will receive a confirmation email with further information and your invoice. If you do not receive an e-mail, please check your spam folder. In case of doubt, just drop me an email.
When and how will I get access to the programs online learning platform Mentortools?
You will get access to Mentortools a week before we start. You will have access to the community before we start to get to know your fellow participants. I will also keep you posted on what is going on behind the scenes before we start. We will also have an online kick-off party.
At what time will the online workshops take place?
The online workshop will take place Thursdays starting October 17th. The weekly Q&A session for questions and feedback will take place Tuesdays. The time of the day still depends on the time zones of participants, but I am planning to run them at 11h or 15h Central European time (Zürich).
How much time will I need to invest?
You will need to make time for the two 60 min. weekly workshops on Zoom. How much time you will spend on preparing, working on your workbook and start implementing largely depends on you. I would calculate a total weekly time investment of 3-4 hours.
Can I only participate in the Munich Masterclass?
I recommend that you do the online program, too, because we will share and exchange on our learnings and the things participants will have developed and implemented. But you can also come and get support on your current communication projects and challenges. In addition we will do other things that are better suited for a face2face workshop like role play.
What is included in the Munich Masterclass?
The package for the Munich Masterclass is one day of in-person workshops and mastermind circles at the headquarters of EQS (conveniently located close to Munich main station). The lunch during the workshop is on me. I let you take care of your travel and accommodation.
Until when can I cancel the Munich Masterclass?
It is important to have enough people to participate in the Rome retreat. That is the purpose of a mastermind circle – it lives from the exchange of the participants. You can cancel the masterclass until 15 days before it starts. After that I will need to charge you the full fee (850 Euro) or you can send a substitute.
How long will I have access to the material on the Mentortools learning Platform?
Your access ends after 6 months. I believe that permanent access to the content will not make a difference to your success! On the contrary, if you know that the content will no longer be available after 6 months, you will work much more efficiently.
Does the price include VAT?
Since I am based in Switzerland you only have to pay VAT, if you are also based in Switzerland. Please indicate this in the registration form when you book the program.
