Description
Using colorful examples from sports, politics and current business news, analyze how "good" people end up in the Village of Ethics Purgatory, and discuss how to avoid this and other bad neighborhoods. Was it the detour through Half-Truth Town, the shortcut through Oblivious Falls or not wanting to stop and ask for directions? Perhaps, you were in uncharted waters and found yourself or your colleagues were in over their heads. Find out how to navigate through the ethical decision process. The webcast will include defined benefit material, but all are welcome to join this road trip.

Key Takeaways:
1. Identify behaviors and attitudes that lead to making ethical decisions.
2. List habits and specific strategies that promote good ethical decisions.
3. Apply the Code of Conduct and applicable ethical standards from the IRS and JBEA to real-world and industry examples.
