Inspiring people to do the right thing is the essence of principled performance. It is about inspired rather than required behaviour—living principles beyond following rules. Ultimately, principled performance leads to healthier, more profitable organisations. LRN was founded on this notion and has grown into a successful business that has helped to shape the way millions of employees behave and interact across the globe.
LRN’s overall approach recognises the inherent limitations of rules and regulations in influencing behaviours, especially when rules and regulations increase apace. In our view, focusing on actions that help build and maintain a values-based culture, how people approach their work and interact with others, will mean less risk and lower costs while elevating innovation, reliability, financial performance, and brand trust.
LRN was founded on the belief that society is better off when legal & ethical knowledge is accessible to all. We are proud to have been helping corporations act responsibly long before CSR and ESG became fashionable business acronyms. We’re glad to see these important concepts catching on.
LRN's 2025 Global Study on Ethics & Compliance Programme Maturity is one of the most comprehensive views into the current state of compliance programs. The report reflects insights from compliance professionals spanning industries, geographies, and organisation size across six E&C maturity dimensions: Culture, resources & board oversight, written standards, enforcement, discipline & incentives, training & communication, and risk assessment & reporting.
The E&C Programme Effectiveness Report highlights the challenges and opportunities facing E&C professionals across industries and regions. It explores the widening gap between high- and medium-impact compliance programmes, significant generational divides, and the critical need for organisations to address emerging risks like artificial intelligence and supply chain compliance.
LRN’s 2024 Code of Conduct Report offers impactful research and insights on the connection between an organisation’s code of conduct and business impact. It explores employee perceptions of codes of conduct—their needs, behaviours, and preferred ways of engagement—to provide organisations with the insights needed to advance their E&C programmes.
Ethical culture doesn’t just protect business assets and reputation; it also propels the bottom line. Compiling insights from nearly 8,000 employees at companies around the world, the LRN Benchmark of Ethical Culture examines the underpinnings of corporate culture and the factors that matter most to fostering ethical conduct and outcomes.
