Ethical investigation interviews Ten things to considerCase IQ
At a time in history marked by alternative facts, political pressure and manipulation of truth, it’s more important than ever for investigators to be laser-focused on conducting fair and honest investigations. It’s critical for investigators to be ethical when conducting interviews, so that subjects are treated fairly, and findings cannot be questioned. Even a seasoned investigator can benefit from training, or refresher training, on what it means to conduct an ethical investigation interview.
Join Mark Anderson, Director of Training and Development with Anderson Investigative Associates, as he discusses strategies for ensuring investigation interviews are honest and ethical, while at the same time maximizing the quality and quantity of information obtained. At the basis of this ethical interviewing is a non-confrontational, rapport-based approach to all interactions. This approach and the application of ethical behaviour produces a confidence and credibility that obtains productive and effective results.
The Corporate Ethics CommitteeIn some organizations, ethics is m.docxmehek4
The Corporate Ethics Committee
In some organizations, ethics is managed by a corporate committee staffed by seniorlevel
managers from a variety of functional areas. This committee is set up to provide
ethical oversight and policy guidance for CEO and management decisions.12 It also
represents an affirmation that top management really cares about ethics.
At Lockheed Martin, the Ethics and Business Conduct Steering Committee
meets once every quarter and has done so since 1995. The committee provides the
organization with strategic direction and oversight on matters of ethics and business
conduct. Each business area and business unit has also established a steering committee
to oversee its ethics and business conduct operations. Members of the corporate
committee include the general counsel (committee chairman), executives of large
operating entities, and vice presidents from functional areas such as human resources,
finance, audit, and communications. The two-way communication between the ethics
office and these senior executives is essential. It gives the ethics office information
about what concerns senior-level management, and it gives the firm’s leadership
information about the types of issues that are coming into the ethics office from
employees. The group’s role is viewed as strategic. The steering committees at all
levels of the corporation review the ethics awareness training and business conduct
compliance training programs, metrics on investigations and requests for guidance,
trends, employee survey results, and matters referred by the business areas and business
units.
COMMUNICATING ETHICS
Within the ethics infrastructure, good communication—downward, upward, and two way—
is essential if an organization is to have a strong, aligned ethics culture. The
organization must evaluate the current state of ethics communication and initiatives.
It must communicate its values, standards, and policies in a variety of formal and
informal ways that meet its employees’ needs. These communication efforts should
be synergistic, clear, consistent, and credible. They also need to be executed in a
variety of media, because people learn things in different ways. In general, the old
advice to speechwriters still holds. ‘‘Tell ’em what you’re going to tell ’em, then tell
’em, then tell ’em what you told ’em.’’ In addition to receiving downward communication
from management, employees must also have opportunities to communicate
their ethical concerns upward. Finally, an open communication environment must be
created that says it’s okay to ask questions, and it’s okay to talk about ethics. In the
following section, we begin with some corporate communications basics—principles
that should guide all ethics communication initiatives.

BUSINESS ETHICS, CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, AND CRITICAL THINKING
You are a senior associate consultant at Accent Pointe Consulting LLP, a consulting firm. The engagement partner has asked you to prepare an engagement plan and budget. You make sure that your plan and budget are in line with your knowledge of what can and must be done to meet the client's needs. The proposed fee is $100,000. When you present the budget to the engagement partner, she goes ballistic. “What's this $100,000? This is Accent Pointe Consulting. This is the big time. What kind of consultant are you?”
“A good one,” you reply. “I've created a reasonable plan, and for what we are doing for the client, that is a high-end fee.”
The partner, however, does not buy your arguments. “You make this contract $200,000,” she orders you, “and find a way in your engagement plan to back up that price.”
What action will you take?
What process and guidelines will you use to determine what is the right thing to do in this context?
If you decide that $100,000 is the correct contract price, how do you resist the partner's request to make you bill the client for $200,000?
Will you take a different action if you know that a year from now the firm's partners will vote on whether you should be made a partner, and you believe the engagement partner's recommendation will be critical to your becoming a partner?
Will you take a different action if you are the engagement partner and have been ordered to bill the client $200,000 by a managing partner? Note that as a partner, your share of firm profits is determined by the number of “units” you have, which is largely a function of the amount the firm bills clients for whom you are the engagement partner.
What action will you take if you discover that the managing partner's request to bill more is a relatively isolated incident in a firm that generally bills clients accurately? You don't know the managing partner's motivation for asking you to overbill the client.
What action will you take if you discover that the firm has a culture that encourages overbilling clients? The overbilling culture evolved within the last decade from a desire of managing partners to enjoy a financial status more nearly equal to the corporate executives of their clients, many of whom receive annual compensation in the millions of dollars.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
