Stress Testing Your Organization

Guest Speaker:  Carrie S. Penman

Vice President Ethical Leadership Group

Thursday, June 24, 2010
8:15 am – 3:00 pm

Location: Anadarko Petroleum
1201 Lake Robbins Drive, The Woodlands, TX 77380

Allison Hall AB, third floor

As government investigative activity and regulatory oversight increase both in the U.S. and abroad, ethics and compliance officers must be familiar with what is expected from their ethics and compliance programs by outside parties. This hands-on workshop will explore what government-appointed monitors and board-appointed assessors look for when scrutinizing programs, including what documents and supporting information are expected to be completed and readily available. Participants will learn how to stress-test their own programs according to key evaluation criteria, including:

• process by which significant risks are identified;
• specific means by which these risks are responded to; and
• how the organization would respond once an employee became aware of a potential problem in a given risk area

Participants will leave the workshop with action-planning objectives to help prepare for a potential future stress-test of their own organization.

Note: In honor and memory of Linda Lipps, GHBER past Board Member, this event has been renamed, “The Linda Lipps Annual Members Only Forum”.

Many thanks to Anadarko for hosting this meeting! We look forward to seeing you there!
