Risk, Compliance and AMLGovernance, Ethics and Stakeholder Accountability
Good governance is judged as much by organisational culture and stakeholder trust as by compliance checklists. This course moves beyond the mechanics of boards and committees to examine how ethics codes, whistleblowing systems and environmental, social and governance reporting shape reputation and long term license to operate. Participants work through dilemmas drawn from state owned enterprises, family businesses and listed companies operating across multiple African jurisdictions.

- Design and embed a code of ethics and whistleblowing framework that people actually use
