VICTORIA, BC - July 31st, 2024 Charter Telecom, an award-winning technology solutions integrator established in 1997 in Victoria, BC, Canada, announced today the release of the latest edition in its regular Charter Engage: Know IT podcast series, called “Governance Risk and Compliance – Aligning Business Activities to Goals.”

Whether you're a seasoned professional or just stepping into these critical realms, our goal is to provide you with valuable insights and practical knowledge to help your organization thrive.

In today's episode, we'll embark on a comprehensive exploration of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). We'll delve into each of these elements to uncover how they contribute to creating a resilient and well-aligned organization, enabling you to navigate the complexities of the business world with confidence.

Hear from our guests, who deal with GRC in the field every day, including Marleen Mavrow, Charter’s Director of Governance, Risk and Compliance; Kegan Adams, our Chief Operating Officer; and Mark George, the Vice President, Business Transformation & Prairies Market Leader, as they discuss GRC Definitions; Why GRC is Essential to Business; How Organizations Deal with Changing Compliance Rules and Risks; Proactive GRC Frameworks; Charter’s GRC Practice; GRC Considerations; GRC and Data; Generative AI; GRC and Cybersecurity; to “Start Small,” and the Differences between GRC and ESG.

“I think it’s a common misperception that GRC is just for big companies. In fact, every organization, regardless of size or industry can benefit from GRC because it is all about creating a manageable and achievable framework. Many organizations, even if they don't have particular laws around cybersecurity, none of them want to be impacted by a cybersecurity event. And if they have, they sure wish they spent some more time on it. And that’s where GRC comes in. It’s the most efficient path forward to creating a manageable, practical approach.” - Marleen Mavrow, Charter, Director of Governance, Risk and Compliance
