Capability without Governance Leads to Instability: Integrated GRC with Noor Aziz

Episode notes

Innovation spans many areas, and compliance professionals need not only to be ready for it but also to embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom visits with Noor Aziz, a Saudi Arabia - based governance, risk, and compliance professional with extensive ISO lead auditor credentials, internal audit and controls experience, and a growing focus on AI governance. Noor argues that effective compliance must be practical and business-friendly - clear ownership, escalation, accountability, and evidence - so it still functions under operational pressure rather than becoming bypassed.
