The “Three Ms” framework—Map, Manage, and Method—designed by compliance expert Prof. V Jesudevan, provides a clear and actionable path forward. In this “new normal,” where challenges are unpredictable and stakes are higher than ever, the “Three Ms” empower organizations to embrace uncertainty with confidence, navigate risks effectively, and build a foundation for enduring growth. This framework isn’t just about compliance; it’s about leading with clarity and purpose, enabling organizations not just to survive but to thrive.
The Significance of the “Three Ms” Framework
With a focus on resilience, the “Three Ms” framework equips organizations to navigate today’s risk landscape by providing a clear, systematic approach.
1. Map
Mapping involves gaining a thorough understanding of relevant laws, regulations, and potential risks across regions. By identifying both direct and indirect risks that could impact operations, organizations can make informed decisions and maintain a competitive edge in an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.
2. Manage
Effective risk management is a dynamic, ongoing process. To stay aligned with current data, organizations should keep their risk dashboards updated. This proactive management enables businesses to safeguard their reputation, avoid preventable losses, and adapt quickly to changing regulatory and market conditions.
3. Method
Implementing compliance strategies requires a structured, organization-wide commitment to educating employees about compliance requirements and emerging threats. Moving beyond standard awareness programs and generic online learning, this approach empowers employees with the practical skills and knowledge they need to carry out their responsibilities with confidence. It integrates compliance into the core of the company’s culture, making it a shared commitment rather than a mere requirement.
