3rd Integrity Summit: Building a Nation with Integrity

19 September 2013, Thursday/ 8am-2pm
Rizal Ballroom Makati Shangri-La / Manila, Philippines

 

The summit features the significant progress of the private sector in  establishing a new breed of companies that is driving culture change and spearheading the campaign to build  the Philippines as a nation with integrity. This call for integrity is amidst a backdrop of stronger global pressure for companies to embrace ethical practices, lest they be left out by the competition. In this campaign, government plays a vital role  in providing an enabling environment for ethical companies.

 

The summit will also showcase – through an exhibit—systems and practices of companies that are mainstreaming integrity and ethics in organizations.
