This highly-interactive and thought provoking session will take a look at how organizations have integrated ethics into their business practices, and highlight the important role that accountants play in helping their organizations to manage their businesses ethically.  Learn about the changing role of the accounting department and how you can help ensure that your organization stays out of the news headlines for being "unethical".
