About

This Webinar

This Webinar will be presented by Gráinne Madden. Codes of Ethics are a tool used in many organisations to help encourage the right behaviour. But how useful are they? And how can non-executive directors know if they are working well for the business? This webinar will highlight what directors should be looking out for in relation to their organisation’s code and some of the questions they should be asking to make a judgement about how well it’s working. We will also look at good practice in terms of codes of conduct for board directors.
