Ken Chapman on working at home | Gender issues are not going away any time soon. Whether it's representation in the executive suite, whether it's about pay equity, child care or a score of other issues, employers can no longer duck the ethical questions of fairness and accommodation which arise. Despite great changes in the past generation, there are still pockets of resistance to gender equity in government and in business. What kind of image does your company project? | 5/1/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Ken Chapman on the ethics of lobbying | As we're learning from the Americans (who spend billions doing it), business lobbying not only helps maintain a level playing field, but can tip the scales - sometimes unfairly and perhaps illegally - either in your favour or that of your competitor. As a matter of course and at the same time, not-for-profit and volunteer organizations lobby government on behalf of their own causes as well. | 4/1/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
