Episode Synopsis

In this new season of Adventures in Compliance, host Tom Fox takes a deep dive into the Sherlock Holmes novels. Over this season Tom will take a deep dive into each novel over a four part series. The four novels we will consider from the ethics and compliance perspective are A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of Four, The Hound of the Baskervilles and The Valley of Fear. For the month of July we are considering lessons from The Hound of the Baskervilles.

Fiona and Timothy are back to extract five key compliance lessons from the story, including combating complacency, effective data use, maintaining objectivity, transparent communication, and ethical culture. These principles, drawn from a Victorian mystery, prove profoundly relevant for modern corporate compliance.

Highlights include:


Overview of Compliance Lessons from Sherlock Holmes

Lesson 1: Avoiding Complacency

Lesson 2: Power of Effective Data and Evidence

Lesson 3: Independence and Objectivity

Lesson 4: Transparent Communication and Reporting

Lesson 5: Importance of Culture and Ethics
