Show Notes

We still hear about many scandals, bribery, and corruption in organizations. Often there are some people in the organization that know about it, yet stay quiet. The cost of silence can be very high. Both individuals and organizations play a role in moving from bystanders to outspoken to report problems and wrong-doing. In this episode we hear from Helen Afford, General Counsel for IMI Critical Engineering. Her vision is a world where people do the right thing even when no-one is looking. In this episode, Helen shares:

✔️Why it is so hard to speak up in the workplace.

✔️How people can more easily speak up when they see something wrong.

✔️What leaders can do to help their team speak up more.

✔️One core action organizations can take to support speaking up.
