Employees who are seeking new employment present ethics challenges that are different from incoming or current employees. Employees’ motivation and incentives change when they are preparing to leave, and those motivations and incentives do not always align with the public interest. As a result, separation is a time of increased risk for corruption and harm to agency operations. In this session, Chris Swartz of the Department of the Interior discusses how agencies can adopt some of the tools of enterprise risk management to strategically anticipate and address those risks at the organizational, group, and individual level.
