Building an Ethics-Based Culture: Conversations in the Boardroom and in the Hallways

AUDIO-BASED COURSE - Conversations in the Boardroom and in the Hallways.  Organizations with strong ethics-based cultures are significantly less prone to misconduct. Driving the right culture is part of our professional responsibility, and is key to organizational success, but culture can be elusive and dynamic. In this course, we’ll explore promoting culture through examining typical conversations that go on at the board table and in day-to-day operations throughout the organization.
