Tone from the top is crucial in setting appropriate and consistent behavioural standards for an organisation. Achieving the living demonstration of that tone is one thing. Ensuring it lands well and can be accommodated across cultures is another - how does tone from the top reach across different populations and cultures.
• What strategies/techniques/programmes do leaders rely on to ensure the tone they set reaches out to all employees?
• What responsibilities do employees have to engage with the organisational tone?
• How does an individual employee in the heart of a business play their part in building an open and ethical culture?
• What challenges does an organisation face in promulgating and delivering an effective tone from the top?
A panel of experts from Eisai, HS2 and Lockheed Martin will answer questions and discuss their own organisations’ programmes and challenges.
What are Business Ethics Network (BEN) meetings?
BEN meetings bring together those responsible for E&C within their organisation, providing an invaluable occasion to meet and share issues and practices with which they are involved. Up to 2 employees from each eligible subscriber organisation may join these meetings.
