2026 E&C Program Effectiveness Report

LRN’s 2026 Ethics & Compliance Program Effectiveness Report, based on more than 2,500 respondents across 26 industries, reveals a widening gap between high‑impact and average programs. While AI and data‑analytics adoption is expanding, many firms lack the governance and measurement needed to turn tools into results. Ethical culture shows modest global improvement, driven by leaders who model values, yet middle management often fails to reinforce those standards. The findings signal a critical call‑to‑action for leaders to deepen technology integration and close trust gaps.
