Drs. Hill and Albrecht will describe and evaluate how corporate fraud and the unethical behavior of those persons granted the highest levels of trust brought about the demise of major companies like HIH, Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing, and Adelphia. Attorneys will gain insight into preventing corporate fraud and implementing corrective means once fraud is discovered. Also, participants will learn more about the nature of "good" ethics and how it can be legitimized by the government, taught by universities and practiced by businesses and lawyers.

He has addressed professional audiences in China, Australia, South Africa, Chile, Korea, the Netherlands, Denmark, Russia, Germany, Mexico, Sweden, Jordan, Slovenia, the U.K., and Canada, as well as the United States.
