The Smartest Guys in the Room


In this episode of The Ethics and Compliance Library Podcast features ‘The Smartest Guys in the Room,’ by Peter Elkind and Bethany McLean. After discussing the Enron scandal, host Lauren Siegel interviews Peter followed by Sherron Watkins, the Enron whistleblower. Many have either read the book or watched the documentary and know the ins and outs of this scandal, but this episode takes it a step further than what you may already know. It explores the failures of the system, not just of the company, diving into speak up culture and how to avoid becoming the next Enron.  As you listen, ask yourself how you are building a culture of trust internally. Ask yourself whether your organization is asking the necessary questions of leadership and employees. Ask yourself if the tone from the top is one encouraging that trust and questioning. This case study is not just for Ethics and Compliance leaders, but also leadership and all employees alike. The conversation will continue for all in the CONVERGE Community. 
You can also check out the topic and issues in the CONVERGE thread here.
