How to Navigate President Trump’s Executive Orders with Integrity

Understanding policy pressure points stemming from Trump’s 2025 Executive Orders

Not all Executive Orders carry the same weight. This playbook helps you differentiate between them, offering a framework for assessing which EOs matter to your business and why. We address key areas of uncertainty, including: 

• DEI reversals: What does heightened scrutiny around race-conscious programming mean for your organization? 
• FCPA and anti-bribery: How do renewed EOs put pressure on global integrity programs? 
• AI regulation: What are the ethical and tactical implications of new rules? 
• Immigration enforcement: How do you protect the safety and trust of your multinational teams?

Where policy meets people

The impact of Executive Orders is often felt at the employee level, particularly among front-line managers who are asked to navigate “gray areas” with little guidance. Internal reporting trends show spikes in reports related to harassment, retaliation, and politics, suggesting confusion about boundaries. This playbook provides guidance on how to support your people and foster a culture of clarity and consistency, starting with leadership.

Act with integrity, not inaction

A compliance program that isn’t evolving is falling behind. The most effective leaders don’t wait for certainty; they proactively equip their organizations to respond to change. Our playbook offers a 30-day response guide to help you take immediate action, from conducting a policy pulse check to equipping your leaders with the tools they need.
