What is the Operationally-Sound Cross-Functional Program course about?

Compliance officers often own critical outcomes but lack the operational levers to execute across silos. Initiatives slow down or fail not because of regulatory gaps, but due to misaligned workflows, unclear ownership, and reactive coordination. The result is duplicated effort, audit friction, and delayed value, even when policies are sound.
