In episode 2 of the Ethics and Compliance Library, we will analyze Giving Voice to Values by Mary Gentile. Giving Voice to Values, or GVV, not only explores how each of us can prepare to voice our values in different situations, why we do and don’t, but also sets up a framework with tools for how to strengthen the muscle for doing so. Through an interview with Dr. Mary Gentile herself as well as an interview with E&C leader, Blair Marks of Lockheed Martin, we will begin to uncover not only how to action this practice as individuals, but how and why it is invaluable to do so at the organizational level. Listeners can expect to better understand the framework laid out in Giving Voice to Values and have some actionable take-aways for how to implement that framework as an individual looking to more consistently step into voicing their values, and as leaders looking to positively impact our organizations. Join me in the Converge community (Converge.convercent.com) to continue engaging in the conversation started in this podcast episode today!
It is easy to look around the business world, or really our everyday world even, and wonder how we could possibly voice our values. Stifled by regulations and pressures from managers and peers, our values are so easily brushed under the rug. What are our values, even? I would encourage all listeners to first think about what key values they feel most connected to in their life. These will change over time, but often are deeply tied to who we are as family members, friends, employees, and global citizens. For me, one of those values is honesty, another, vulnerability. What are your values? What are your organization’s values? Now, place yourself in a though experiment and explicitly ask yourself: “what if you were going to act on your values – what would you say and do.” Dr. Gentile continuously asks this and helps to equip us with a toolkit to “grease the skids that might carry us there,” there being the place where we can effectively voice our values, “sidestepping all the preemptive arguments and rationalizations that pop up naturally, about how difficult or even impossible it may be to do so.”

Lazaro Baez was recently sentenced to 12 years in jail for money laundering in Argentina, charges that connected him to political powers still at large in the country. This international case revealed deeply rooted corruption and strong headwinds against uncovering critical evidence – but that did not stop Mariano Federici, the former head of Argentina’s Financial Intelligence Unit, from continuing to dig in.
In episode 8 of Digging Deeper, Mariano shares with Chris Morgan Jones how the investigation unfolded and what the future of related cases may be. As Mariano notes, “When the world is set to cooperate, there is no good place to hide.”

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.
One of the best parts of GWIC is that we get the opportunity to speak with some of the trailblazers in our field. In the next two episodes, Lisa talks with Pat Harned, the CEO of the Ethics and Compliance Initiative (ECI). Today, Lisa gets to learn about Pat’s background, what led her to working at ECI and how the organization evolved before and during her leadership. Pat talks about her experience as a woman in our field and as a CEO,
This first episode also discusses what ECI does, including the recent ECI IMPACT 2021 conference which was at the end of April. The keynotes and discussions included speakers from outside the E&C function, providing a different perspective in areas like corporate culture. Corporate culture is also a significant part of the Global Business Ethics Survey Trends Report, what was also released this year. Pat highlights some of the key findings, and a few surprises they saw along the way, and how we can take a critical look at our function to work towards a more diverse profession as a whole.
