All too often we see attitudes of corporate arrogance and a general indifference for ethics. This is all too common within large organizations who noticeably are driven by compliance and regulatory pressures. The obvious obsession with compliance narrows the scope of their lenses, limits their understanding and appreciation for ethics, and ignores the most valuable […]

Eliminating Fraud In Your Organization and Creating Ethical Cultures
It is a common belief in the leadership ranks of most organizations that fraud is not a problem and that they operate ethical cultures. Nothing could be further from the truth as fraud is everywhere on some level, and cultures are never as ethical as they claim. No one has their arms around human conduct. It […]
Ethics, Moral Compasses, & Confronting Dilemmas
As 2014 winds down we are once again reminded of the lack of ethics and moral compasses in play on our planet; the horrific events that have transpired recently by other humans. How can we explain what the Taliban did murdering 146 innocent people in a Peshawar school? A spokesperson for the Taliban in Pakistan […]
Building Ethical Cultures & Preventing Fraud
Prior to celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow, one of my favorite holidays of the year, I am reminded of the poor conduct visible to all of us on our planet and our very average ethical business cultures in place. Most organizations I talk with think they have the right systems, controls, procedures, policies, and stated values present […]
Doing the Right Thing & Personal Ethics
When it comes to personal ethics, I think the phrase “doing the right thing” is simply overused. Too often when the subject of personal or business ethics surfaces we are prone to declare do the right thing; as if this comes as easy as blinking our eyes. There is nothing easy in life about just […]
Disclosure, Compliance, & Ethics
What we choose to say, when we say it, and how it is said often determines our ethics. The entire real estate business is based on the premise of honest and straight forward disclosure. This is designed to make transactions honest and fair for buyers and sellers. Without proper and honest disclosure, how can we […]
Ethics & The Wishing Well
You might be wondering what the connection is between ethics and wishing wells. On the surface I’m not able to link the two for you without sharing a very personal part of my own story. My quest to lead an ethical life and understand ethics has been a difficult journey; a roller coaster of twists […]
Ethical Reflections
I had the blessing and good fortune yesterday at St. John’s University to conduct several presentations to high school students at a one week program called Minnesota Business Venture Program managed by BestPrep. This program in recent years has included a vital segment covering business ethics and ethical practices. BestPrep has been at the forefront connecting […]
Life & Ethics- A Daily Reflection
Allow me to take you back in time and reflect on my own ethics journey. July 1 is a significant day to remember and never forget. Five years ago in a northern California district court room, I was sentenced to 366 days in a federal prison for committing mail/wire fraud and money laundering. My life and […]
Good Deeds Lead to Ethical Conduct
It is convenient and all too easy these days to hear wonderful sound bytes from organizations regarding their values and ethical standards. We often hear about employees taking an annual online course concerning ethics and that this training is helpful to promoting ethical conduct. Truth be known, most workers know the real score and think […]
