Are you afraid of commitment?
Clients need to see the utmost commitment from their lawyers. If they don't get the instant, diligent representation they're looking for, they won't refer your services, and there's nothing stopping them from posting negative feedback online.
But, there's a mismatch here. Most clients have only one lawyer, while lawyers must juggle the demands of several clients. How do you deliver on your commitments in a way that clients mutually respect and value?
Join Alli Gerkman, Director of Educating Tomorrow’s Lawyers at the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System, and Joshua Lenon, Clio’s own lawyer in residence, as they look at how lawyers can embrace clearer, more trusted commitments with their clients. In this one-hour, CLE-accredited1 session, you’ll learn:
- How to communicate your dedication
- Why success does not necessarily reflect commitment to clients
- How honoring commitment helps law firms win more clients
- How to respond when clients disagree on your notion of commitment
Can you keep a secret?
Client confidentiality is the bedrock of any trusted legal practice. It’s a priority that informs everything from personal interactions to firm-level data protection—all of which requires effort, diligence, and planning. But in the Information Age, there are more opportunities than ever to breach confidentiality—are you REALLY giving it the attention it deserves?
A recent study of more than 24,000 lawyers identified the ability to keep information confidential as the most important competency in a new lawyer. Alli Gerkman, Director of Educating Tomorrow’s Lawyers at the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System (who led the study) will join Joshua Lenon, Clio’s own Lawyer in Residence to explain how to keep your client secrets under lockdown. In this one-hour session, you’ll learn why keeping information confidential is crucial for every level of your law firm, as well as:
Techniques for training staff and clients on preserving confidentiality
Resources for evaluating your own data protection measures

Chapter 3Risk Management in EmploymentEmployment Re.docxketurahhazelhurst
Chapter 3:
Risk Management in Employment
Employment Relationship carries Risk
• Risk to an organization is not limited to
provider-patient relationships
• As in any business, the healthcare organization
has responsibilities to its employees. Many of
which, if not properly implemented/enforced,
can lead to negative and litigious results
Employment-at-Will
• An employer may dismiss an employee
hired for an indefinite period of time for
any reason or no reason at all without
incurring liability to the employee
• Caveat: cannot discharge for an unlawful
reason, such as racial discrimination
Implicit Employment Contracts
• Though most states follow the employment-at-
will doctrine, many organizations may
unknowingly negate their ability to apply this
principle through
– Employer policies (i.e. progressive disciplinary policy)
– Oral assurances (i.e. looks like you have a bright
future ahead of you here)
– Industry customs (i.e. after so many years in one
position, employees are promoted to the next level)
– Employer conduct (i.e. allowing some employees
more chances to correct errors than others)
Burden of Proof
• In civil litigation of discrimination, the burden of
proof is usually on the plaintiff -they must show:
• Membership in a protected group
• Satisfactory job performance or appropriate
qualifications for the job being sought
• Receipt of discipline, termination or rejection
despite having the qualifications
• Employees of another protected class were
disciplined less severely or the employer continued
to accept application of people who were no better
qualified
Sexual Harassment
• Unwelcome sexual advances, request for
sexual favors or other verbal or physical
conduct of a sexual nature when it is one of
the following:
• is a condition of employment
• is the basis of employment decisions
• interferes with work performance
• creates a hostile work environment
Minimizing Risk of Sexual Harassment
• Organization must exercise reasonable care to
prevent and correct any sexually harassing
behavior
– Written policies/procedures
– Documented staff training on policies/procedures
– Consistently adhere to and enforce policies
– Immediately investigate allegations of sexual
harassment
Responsibility of the Employee
• Employee must report occurrences of sexual
harassment to employer
– Employer must be given the opportunity to investigate
and take corrective action
• Though it is important that an employer investigate
all reports of sexual harassment, proactively
addressing situations or behavior that may be
perceived as sexual harassment is imperative.
– If management is aware of a potential situation and does
nothing, the risk of litigation and penalty is increased

CHAPTER3 Maintaining ComplianceMANY LAWS AND REGULATIONS.docxchristinemaritza
CHAPTER
3 Maintaining Compliance
MANY LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE IN PLACE regarding the protection of
information technology (IT) systems. Companies have a requirement to comply with the laws that
apply to them. The first step is to understand the laws. You’re not expected to be a lawyer, but you
should understand the basics of relevant laws.
Once you have an idea of which laws and regulations apply, you can then dig in deeper to
ensure your organization is in compliance. The cost of not complying can sometimes be
expensive. Fines can be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Some offenses can result in jail
time.
Chapter 3 Topics
This chapter covers the following topics and concepts:
• What U.S. compliance laws exist
• What some relevant regulations related to compliance are
• What organizational policies for compliance should be considered
• What standards and guidelines for compliance exist
Chapter 3 Goals
When you complete this chapter, you will be able to:
• Define compliance
• Describe the purpose of FISMA
• Identify the purpose and scope of HIPAA
• Describe GLBA and SOX, and the impact for IT
• Describe the purpose of FERPA
• Identify the purpose and scope of CIPA
• List some federal entities that control regulations related to IT
• Describe the purpose of PCI DSS
• Describe the contents of SP 800-30
• Describe the purpose of COBIT
• Describe the purpose of ISO and identify some relevant security standards
• Identify the purpose of ITIL
• Identify the purpose of CMMI
U.S. Compliance Laws
Many laws exist in the United States related to information technology (IT). Companies affected
by the laws are expected to comply with the laws. This is commonly referred to as compliance.
Many organizations have internal programs in place to ensure they remain in compliance with
relevant laws and regulations. These programs commonly use internal audits. They can also use
certification and accreditation programs. When compliance is mandated by law, external audits are
often done. These external audits provide third-party verification that the requirements are being
met.
An old legal saying is “ignorance is no excuse.” In other words, you can’t break the law and
then say “I didn’t know.” The same goes for laws that apply to any organization. It’s important for
any organization to know what the relevant laws and regulations are.
You aren’t expected to be an expert on any of these laws. However, as a manager or executive,
you should be aware of them. You can roll any of the relevant laws and regulations into a
compliance program for more detailed checks.

• Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) 2002

• Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) 2002

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
