About this episode

How do we encourage people to speak up when they have concerns about how work is being carried out or how others are behaving? For leaders, this is critical to building a positive culture in the organisation and to managing business risk successfully. After all, no-one wants to be the next Enron, Carillion or Wirecard hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons. So how do you ensure that everyone in the organisation understands what’s expected of them and shares a strong sense of responsibility for the way work gets done?
