how to use serendipity to perform due diligence checks on your company’s ethics and compliance program
- Virtual PresentationKeynote PresentationWorkshop SessionHalf Day TrainingFull Day Training
According to Men, Women and Ethical Leadership: Gender’s Influence on Tone at the Top (the National Business Ethics Survey, NBES), the level of distrust by gender is not the same. More females than males don’t report misconduct because they sense a lack of faith or trust in the system or practices within their company.
If an employee told you “I don’t trust you”, where would you even begin? What if this distrust in you wasn’t personal? Whether or not it was, would you want to know this? It would seem easier to brush this off. “If they have a problem, they’ll raise it with me.” — Except it’s not guaranteed.
The truth shall set you free. That journey begins with self-trust. This highly interactive presentation teaches you how to face trust and compliance issues in enlightening and effective ways using the Eagle Soaring Consciousness Tool. It includes an exercise about your relationship with trust.
You also learn the four-step process for leveraging serendipity to perform due diligence checks on that trust and your company’s Ethics and Compliance (E&C) program. By applying this process and your Eagle Soaring Strengths to communication, you and your employees will consistently rise to action… for the greater good. Improving the tone at the top will improve workplace trust and the ethics environment for both genders: both inside and outside of the company. Ultimately this’ll serve the company’s Employee Value Proposition (EVP) and profitability.
Why not give the gift of trust — today!
