The Power of Rules

Rules are often mistakenly believed to dictate behavior, especially at the senior management level. However, the truth is that all rule following is voluntary. No matter how strong a rule may be, it cannot force compliance. It is impossible to be present everywhere and manage everything at once. Therefore, the key is to create an environment that encourages voluntary compliance within the existing compliance parameters.
