What does one person’s ethical failure reveal about the systems around them? In this 30-minute fireside chat, Tom Hardin shares his journey from insider trader to ethics advocate in conversation with Erica Salmon Byrne. Together, they’ll unpack how tone, incentives, and group norms can erode judgment—and discuss what Ethisphere’s data shows about how strong cultures can prevent those same dynamics from taking hold. A rare look inside the psychology of misconduct—and the culture fixes that work.

What if compliance were more than a cost center or a legal safeguard? In this thought-provoking keynote, Professors Suneal Bedi and Todd Haugh reimagine compliance as an “offensive” strategy—one that enables organizations to increase revenue, shape markets, and outperform competitors. Drawing from law and economics, they outline three distinct approaches to offensive compliance and demonstrate how leading companies use compliance not just to avoid harm, but to create strategic advantage. This session invites ethics and compliance leaders to rethink their role in driving enterprise value.
