Anyone who has ever attended a lecture-format ethics seminar knows there is a much better way. Cases in Corporate Ethics provides an opportunity for lively group discussion of real world, ethical dilemmas.
Cases in Corporate Ethics examines eight cases drawn from real-life business conflicts involving corporate financial managers.
Topics Discussed
We regularly introduce new case selections to this seminar. Past cases have included these issues:
- How do you handle an owner who pays for personal expenses with company funds?
- Can you protect the public interest without violating our profession’s confidentiality rules?
- How can a corporate world CPA get in trouble with their board of accountancy?
- Is a culture of fear and intimidation particularly susceptible to corporate fraud?
- How can using the CPA credential get a corporate accountant in trouble?
- Is exaggerating your CPE hours a violation of our professional codes of conduct?
- What are your options when your employer is clearly breaking the law?
- Does any legislation provide effective Whistleblower protection?
