Addressing Fear of Retaliation to Ensure an Open and Trusting Culture - Georgia Power Company's Dr. Shelton J. Goode will present Georgia Power's training strategy to drive ethical performance and create an open and trusting culture by reducing employee fear of retaliation (a leading reason employees fail to report ethical misconduct on the job). You will participate in a demonstration of an interactive tool used to address this common barrier to creating a culture of respect and trust.
How to "Market" Ethics to Baby-Boomers, Gen Xers and Gen Ys in Your Workplace - Ethics and compliance, like everything else, must be marketed to your internal audiences.

The Center for Ethics and Corporate Responsibility, will show how and why "best practices" in managing workplace ethics have changed in recent years, while exploring the pros and cons of several approaches to training.
Outcome Assessment: What Counts as Success in Ethics Training? - Ethics training can yield demonstrable results, but what is reasonable to expect and how can outcomes be gauged? How can training outcomes align with the goals of your overall ethics program? This session will be led by John Truslow who will be drawing from his experience as an ethics program manager with XO Communications and a researcher with the Ethics Resource Center in Washington, D.C.
You will also receive a useful resource guide that can be of immediate
use to your company. Continental breakfast and lunch will be served.
