In theory all businesses are at best, an abstract idea providing goods and services in competitive markets. So what happens when theory crashes with the real world? There are many unexpected outcomes; unpleasant, funny, frightful, illegal, and sometimes deadly.
How do you deal with corruption and fraud risks in a company? Establish controls.
But since absolute control is impossible, we have to craft it and manage in an environment with proper incentives aligned with workable checks and balances understanding that all that we do and touch is imperfect.
The class is designed to provide specific tool to deal with the real world. It will address effective communication, how to deal with the most common fraud problems in business, the cost benefits of bureaucracy, due diligence practices and much more!
