Ms. Boehme’s 20+ years of experience in the field of compliance has earned her the nickname, “The Lion of Compliance.” She is an internationally recognized authority and leader in the field of compliance and ethics who is widely credited with transforming the governance model for the compliance profession into what is now known as Compliance 2.0. For ten years she pioneered the creation of new models for global compliance programs. In 2014 Ms. Boehme was awarded the SCCE’s 10-year anniversary award for dedicated service.
