Upcoming Webinar:

The Care and Feeding of an Effective Anti-Corruption Program

September 8, 2010
8:30 AM Pacific Time; 11:30 AM Eastern Time

Speakers:

Mark Snyderman The speaker is Mark Snyderman, LRN Senior Knowledge Leader, and former Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer at The Coca-Cola Company and Senior Advisor on Anti-Corruption to the United Nations Global Compact

Corruption, broadly defined, is the single greatest obstacle to economic and social development around the world; it distorts markets, stifles economic growth, debases democracy and undermines the rule of law. Understandably, enforcement of anti-corruption laws has risen sharply, with improved cooperation among governments, and the imposition of massive fines against companies and prison sentences for corporate executives. The new UK Bribery Act is one salient example of this growing trend.

The financial hardships that corruption imposes, the threat of serious legal sanctions, and the growing pressure of public opinion give businesses ample reason to engage in the fight against corruption. But establishing and maintaining an effective anti-corruption program often is not easy. Those who would press compliance often must fight local cultures that see many forms of corruption as an acceptable way of doing business, and they often must fight actors in their own companies who believe it is easier to play the game than do the right thing.

This webinar will present practical guidance for making an anti-corruption program work. We will focus on means to achieve the most important goals of any program:

• buy-in from the business
• promotion of an ethical culture
