How Honor Codes Help Instill Ethical Behavior

Our good friend, Catherine Finamore Henry, Ethics Officer and Vice President, Business Development at SmartPros Legal & Ethics will be speaking at the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics 2008 Compliance and Ethics Institute (CEI) on the topic of honor codes.

This age-old tradition is still central to many institutions and cultures, including universities, service groups and the military. Catherine examines the historical significance of honor codes and how they can be used to successful bind together a group in a common cause. Honor codes are only useful when they are lived out and Catherine will discuss best practices on making them come alive and not simply be words enshrined on a plaque. Hint: find ways to tie into shared values.

Her talk will take place on Monday, September 15, 2008 at 11:00 am - 12:00 pm as part of SCCE's CEI 2008 conference (http://www.complianceethicsinstitute.org) which is being held at the Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers, Chicago, IL on September 14-17, 2008.

If you plan to be in Chicago for the conference, don't miss her talk.
