Investigative Protocols After the Monaco Memo

In this episode, I take things in a different direction today as I post the recording of a webinar I recently put on for i-Sight Software Solutions. In this presentation, I detail what the Monaco Memo means your corporate investigative protocol.

Some of the highlights include:

·      What changes did the Monaco Memo portend for corporate investigative protocols?

·      What unintended consequence did the Russian invasion of Ukraine bring to the public view of whistleblowers?

·      Why is triage a key aspect of your investigative protocol?

·      Why should you create an investigative protocol long before an investigation becomes needed?

·      How do you create an investigative protocol to keep key decision makers in the loop?
