My commitment to elevating compliance and ethics within multinational corporations has guided my professional path. Starting in the legal domain at Coopers & Lybrand and Wierzbowski Eversheds / PWC, and moving on to serve as a legal advisor within Polish public administration, I transitioned into the compliance sphere. This journey included roles at AIG, Schering-Plough / Merck Sharp & Dohme, Actavis, Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals, and Vifor Pharma / CSL Vifor, where I implemented and managed corporate compliance programs and fostered a culture of integrity and ethical business practices.

My tenure in these organizations has been marked by key achievements:

• Leadership and Management: I have successfully established and led compliance organizations, instilling a culture of ethics and integrity across organizations. By fostering collaboration between business stakeholders, I have ensured adherence to the highest compliance standards.

• Strategic Development of Compliance Programs: Spearheading the creation and implementation of global healthcare compliance and anti-bribery and anti-corruption programs, my efforts have aligned with stringent regulatory guidelines such as the FCPA, OIG Compliance Guidance, OECD Anti-Bribery Convention, the UK Bribery Act, among others.

• Risk Management: My proactive approach to risk assessment and management has safeguarded organizations against potential legal and ethical breaches, significantly reducing their risk profiles.

• Innovation and Continuous Improvement: I have pioneered the development of risk-based monitoring, auditing programs, and cutting-edge training materials, significantly enhancing organizational compliance awareness and practices.

• Handling Sensitive Investigations: My expertise extends to managing complex governmental investigations and implementing robust whistleblower mechanisms, ensuring transparency and accountability within organizations.

My professional experiences have extended across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the United States. This international exposure has enriched my understanding of applying compliance strategies within varied cultural and regulatory contexts.

Fluent in English and Polish, with intermediate knowledge of German and Russian, I bridge communication gaps in diverse environments effectively. My involvement in the International Bar Association and Ethics & Compliance Switzerland reflects my dedication to staying abreast of the latest developments in compliance and ethics.
