THE TALK: WHITE COLLAR CRIME
- What is it that possesses people in positions of responsibility to defraud their employers?
- Is there a pre-existing character flaw, or is it an economic imperative that drives people to cheat the hand that feeds them?
- When companies suspect that a trusted and hitherto loyal employee or officer may be involved in some irregular activity, what do they do about it?
- What happens to the perpetrators of such crimes when their wrongdoing is discovered?
- These questions and more will be answered by our guest speaker, James Hunter
