Ethics Beyond Compliance

Summary

Integrity and professionalism are core principles of the accounting profession, yet acting ethically isn’t always a straightforward matter of compliance.  

While all AIA members are bound by AIA's Code of Ethics, ethics pervade every aspect of a business, from supply chains to recruitment practices. Maintaining ethical standards in all aspects of your role can be challenging, because the working world is full of grey areas and lose-lose choices. Plus, our own individual ethics are influenced by our environment and personal beliefs, which means we may not always agree with our colleagues or clients. 

This webinar introduces the concept and meaning of ethics, explains why ethical issues often sit at the heart of conflict and shares practical advice for how best to resolve ethical dilemmas in the workplace. You’ll learn how to identify an ethical issue, understand why people end up acting ethically and consider the role culture plays in ethical practice.
