July 2022 Fellows Meeting
Taking a Stand: Organizations and E&C at the Crossroads
From the Russian Invasion of Ukraine to LGBTQ, COVID vaccinations in the workplace, abortion rights, climate change, election controversies and racial divides, these are times that test the resolution and convictions of organizations and their ethics and compliance programs. Companies can no longer stay on the sidelines when it comes to issues of the day and ethics and compliance programs cannot afford to be seen as “missing in action”. The virtual July 2022 Fellows meeting will address how organizations determine what public square issues to weigh in on, the effective internal and external stakeholder communications strategies that are particularly effective at such times, and the role of E&C in the midst of controversial issues that speak to and challenge a company’s core values.
