ECEC Award
With the ECEC Award, we intend to honor exceptional Compliance efforts which have the power to inspire the Compliance community. We are looking for distinct projects in an organization’s Compliance area; it is not the idea to award the entire Compliance program or Compliance organization in general. Rather, we are interested in innovative approaches and measures which have proven to be particularly effective – this might be a notable Compliance communication campaign, a sophisticated KPI measurement model or a difficult internal change management project.

About the project
Three articles are published every other week on the company’s intranet which are intended to help employees recognise key compliance situations, equip them with the right tools to make correct decisions and to provide guidance in finding a solution. To that end, staff can indicate the side of the dilemma they choose before participating in a survey where the theme is discussed in more detail. Finally, a summary article combines the results of the first and second dilemmas, sometimes with reflection from an expert, while suggestions are made for a follow-up theme.
This is a unique project as it collects information from colleagues rather than relying on traditional communication from the compliance department and its success has been reflected in huge engagement numbers.

Our Process
The expert panel of jury chose three projects to compete in the final round. These three finalists present their projects live on the ECEC floor, after which the audience vote for the winner.
The expert jury based their decisions on the following criteria:
- Ethical: how ethical is the idea?
- Exceptionality: how exceptional is the idea?
- Impact: what impact has the idea had?
- Innovation: is this an innovative idea?
- Inspirational: would the idea inspire our Ethics & Compliance community?
- Scalability: how replicable is the idea in other locations?
- Sustainability: how sustainable is the idea?
