Accountants are truth-seekers and truth-tellers. That's what we do. And in order to do our job well, we need to ask questions. We can't ignore red flags that signal to us that there are problems to be addressed. This accounting and ethics webcast is the first of two "Do Ask and Do Tell" workshops, and considers the ethical duty to ask questions when red flags are present.

Major subjects

  • Thinking about the Ethics of Inquisitiveness
  • Red Flags Backgrounder:

  • Cases and Controversies
  • In re DNTW Chtd. Accountants Secs. Litig.
