Managing Whistleblowing and Protected Disclosure
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers corporate governance and contract interpretation from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because commercial teams routinely sign obligations that legal only sees after a dispute, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with board procedure, legal risk assessment and company secretarial practice in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about board procedure without waiting for a specialist, measured against King IV
- Bring legal risk assessment into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of company secretarial practice rather than escalating it
- Explain data protection under POPIA to someone who does not do the work
