Conducting an internal investigation – whether in response to a whistleblower complaint or a government inquiry, or spurred by your human resources department – can expose your organization to significant liability, reputational harm, and distraction from your mission. It is important to handle such investigations correctly.
During this luncheon program, experienced outside and in-house counsel will provide essential guidance on how to effectively prepare for and conduct investigations in a way that minimizes risk to the organization. Our panelists have guided numerous nonprofit organizations through complex investigations and will discuss such topics as best practices and policies the organization should have in place, considerations regarding outside and in-house counsels’ roles, and the nuts and bolts of conducting an effective investigation.
