Presentation

During this presentation, the following topics will be covered:

• Ethical Principles and Values
• COVID Ethics Quiz
• Global Integrity Study
• Ethical Reasoning and Dilemmas
• Fraud Stories and Statistics

In today’s environment organizations and individuals are faced with new and significant decisions that pose difficult ethical dilemmas. While ethics and integrity have been touted for decades, turbulent times can turn these critical culture components into merely buzzwords. A recent survey showed 60% of employees do not believe management operates with integrity and 30% of respondents said they would behave unethically to enhance their career progression. If faced with similar circumstances, would we make the same choices? What should we be doing to address these issues and move ethics and integrity from buzzwords to accepted behavior?

This session provides a look into the ethical philosophies we hold that guide our personal and professional lives and discusses the values upon which our choices are based.

In this interactive and thought-provoking session participants will have the opportunity to:

• Explore the impact of the pandemic on an organization’s ethical environment
• Understand how ethics and integrity play a critical role in the deterrence of fraud within organizations

• Evaluate the role values play in an individual’s and organization’s ethical decision making.

• Practice applying ethical judgment in making choices appropriate for the profession and the public

• Determine improvement opportunities for enhancing the ethical environment and protecting your organization
