Behaviour and Reputation
How we behave and act in our personal lives can have effects on our professional lives and vice versa. The behaviour of members can run contrary to their professional experience and potentially damage their businesses’ reputation. In this discussion, we look at the New Zealand experience where there are challenges in a small membership addressing conduct and behaviour. This includes how to appropriately appoint members to disciplinary committees and the recent review of Code of Conduct and Disciplinary procedures.
