Finance professionals are charged to lead with the highest ethical standards. You’re well aware of the risks, including criminal and financial penalties, a damaged reputation, and loss of the public’s trust.

Ethical leadership requires more than simply being a good person and knowing the rules.
Go beyond compliance to learn how to build a culture of integrity. Prepare for key ethical dilemmas and develop the ability to make good ethical decisions with the Ethical Leadership for Finance Professionals Online Business Certificate.

Who should attend?
This certificate is designed for mid-level managers who have the experience to recognize how ethical issues arise in business, who want to address those issues more comprehensively, and who want to build capacity for future leadership roles.
Training content
- Build an understanding of the risk-related imperative and often-overlooked strategic value of getting beyond ethics and compliance to a culture of integrity.
- Evaluate their decision-making and the decision-making of their teams, observing how ethical decisions are made and how they translate into ethical behavior.
- Obtain a sense of key issues confronting the particular industry from both legal and ethical standpoints.
- Understand the impact of ethical conduct that ranges far beyond check-the-box kinds of compliance-driven objectives.
