Globalising Your Ethics & Compliance Programme


The Institute of Business Ethics and the International Business Ethics Institute are pleased to offer a one-day seminar to assist companies in globalising their ethics and compliance programmes.

Globalising Your Programme addresses some of the most challenging questions that organizations face when developing, revising, or maintaining a global programme, including:

  • How can you globalise your ethics program without sacrificing company standards?
  • How can you develop an effective global code of conduct?
  • What can you do to ensure training and reporting channels are appropriate for international employees?
  • How can you continuously assess risk and new regional issues?

This seminar is appropriate for those who want to enhance the validity and relevance of their global initiative and/or business practices among international affiliates, ethics practitioners who are newly responsible for a global program or are globalizing their program for the first time, and those who are revising an existing global ethics and compliance programme. This course gives participants an understanding of:

  • How to avoid common cultural pitfalls when rolling out a global ethics program
  • Respecting local cultures without sacrificing corporate values on a variety of issues
  • Best practices in drafting, translating, and disseminating a truly global code of conduct
  • Assessing and reducing risk factors
  • How to launch an effective global training program
  • Best practices in structuring and communicating advice and reporting channels for international employees
  • Strategies for successfully tackling corruption and facilitation payments
  • Pluses and Minuses of signing international standards

The course will also help you to recognise and reduce global business ethics risk factors within your organisation and address the most challenging issues often confronting ethics officers internationally.
