CISI Chief Executive Simon Culhane is prepared to share his wealth of experience with the local audience in an engaging management skills workshop, which challenges the audience to think about how we would act when making ethical decisions in the work place using interactive technology vote on how we would respond to ethical scenarios.
Choices remain private but the results are collated and provide a platform for a lively discussion. This integrity workshop has been presented to audiences at firms around the world and would be presented in Sri Lanka as well.
He is a Chartered Fellow of the CISI and a member of the Institute of Financial Services. Culhane was appointed as CISI Chief Executive in May 2004, having previously worked both with a number of blue chip financial companies and in the Central Government. His previous role was at Deutsche Bank, where he worked as Director, Chairman’s Office, and Global Investment Banking.

Culhane highlights the value of this session: “The integrity workshop helps us think about how we would react to ethical dilemmas in the workplace. It puts integrity in the front of our minds and it means people can’t use the excuse I was just following orders or I didn’t understand.” Those who are interested to explore this subject area or reserving your seat, contact Vimukthi Wickramasinghe on 0713 968 220.
