Some of the write in responses to our survey question about future spend:
"They aren't looking to expand our LP budget."
"We aren't given a tech budget and must make opex/capex requests each year."

Brutal. But also familiar to way too many of you.

Here's the difference: the teams that ARE getting budget increases aren't just asking for money. They're demonstrating cross-departmental ROI, operational gains, and compliance value that executives actually care about.

TODAY, February 19, 12:30 EST with Frank Patercity, CPP® (Control Risks) and Steve Lindsey (LVT (LiveView Technologies), let's talk about how to stop being the "no budget" department.

When asked what non-traditional function LP provides the most value in, 63% said operational compliance and safety audits.

Not analytics. Not vendor management. COMPLIANCE.
Because executives care about regulatory risk and liability exposure just as much—maybe more—than they care about shrink.

If you're not positioning yourself as a compliance partner, you're missing your biggest opportunity for influence.

Feb 19, 12:30 PM EST: Frank Patercity (Control Risks) and Steve Lindsey (LVT) break down how top teams are expanding their mandate.

48% of LP teams PROACTIVELY drive new cross-departmental initiatives.

10% are REACTIVE—primarily responding to requests from other departments.

That's a 4.8x difference in leadership posture.

One group is shaping the conversation. The other is taking orders.

Which one are you?
