How important is the role of the CCO in this process?
Conversely when a CCO has a vision and strategy - that is then implemented and automated - they are then seen to be the biggest champion for revenue enabling run rate business rather than stifling it.
Automation leaves more time for CCOs to spend on compliance tasks that cannot be automated easily, like the judgment of complex business situations in highly regulated markets.
What best practices should CCOs implement to drive innovation and business continuity?
The best CCOs partner with the business to really understand how to place gates and controls that mitigate risk, while still allowing the business to operate at maximum efficiency.
One area of the business that is particularly valuable is the IT department, which can help CCOs to maintain and provide systematic proof of both adherence to internal policies and the external laws, guidelines or regulations imposed upon the company.
