Ensuring organisation-wide engagement with compliance policies presents significant challenges, including overcoming employee apathy, addressing diverse learning styles, and combating the perception of compliance as a bureaucratic burden. To overcome these obstacles, legal and compliance teams must adopt a multifaceted approach. This involves tailoring communication to specific roles and departments, implementing interactive and scenario-based training that resonates with real-world situations, and leveraging technology to seamlessly integrate compliance into daily workflows.
