Holding a senior position in any organization carries not only rewards and recognition but also numerous internal and external responsibilities.
As all forms of business become more heavily regulated, many enforcement bodies are looking at ways to pin responsibility for incidents directly on senior individuals within organizations. Honesty, integrity and transparency are expected of today's senior leaders, more so than ever before. It is therefore more likely that you could find yourself in the spotlight regarding your own actions, as well as the actions of your organization, both at home and abroad.Buying a yacht or private jet should be a pleasure, not a headache.
