Cases in Corporate Ethics: Discuss Real Life Conflicts

Overview

If you have ever had someone just read you the rules in an ethics class, you know there is a better way. Cases in Corporate Ethics reviews 10 real life cases and puts you in the position of someone in the middle of it all. You’ll learn about conflicts that corporate financial professionals often encounter, you’ll gain skills for dealing with a boss who is behaving badly and find out where to go for help. Once you have studied ethics using real world cases, you’ll never want to do it any other way. This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.
