Hello. I am your coach for this lesson. I am here to help you explore what is needed to develop your relationship with The ABC Client based on the The ABC Client Code of Professional Conduct. First, watch the following scenario. It covers the topics of mutual respect and learning from one another. As you watch, make mental notes of actions that inhibit mutual respect and fail to promote opportunities to learn from one another. When the scenario is finished, you will be asked to identify what went wrong. Click Next Page in the lower right corner to continue. No issues i 1 of 9

No Audio Here’s the background information for this scenario. David, a senior consultant, is giving feedback to Andrea, a junior consultant, on a report that Andrea prepared for Westford Associates, a long-time client. David agreed to the client’s request to deliver the report by Wednesday, even though the request was made on Friday. Click Start to launch the scenario. No changes i 2 of 9

What were you thinking? This work is completely off target. I am not going to be able to take this to the client. They are an established, conservative company. They are not going to go for these new ideas that you have included. No changes i 3 of 9

6 i No changes 4 of 9 Topic 1 of 8 What Went Wrong?
You asked for a report that included my best recommendations and then did not give me enough time to do the work. And I am not sure what you mean by new ideas. Everything I included was based on current regulations. Even you should be able to see that. No changes i 4 of 9

Look – do not tell me what is new in this field. I have about 20 years on you. I can tell you what I have learned: I cannot rely on you. I am just going to have to do this report myself. No changes i 5 of 9

List two or more actions that indicate a lack of mutual respect and present barriers to learning from one another. No Audio As is the case in most situations where there is disrespectful behavior, both David and Andrea have contributed to the problem. Some of David’s errors included: Agreeing to an unreasonable deadline Not giving Andrea clear directions Providing feedback that is just critical rather than constructive. Andrea’s errors included: Failing to clarify the instructions Failing to ask for instructive feedback Using sarcasm. You may have noticed others as well.

11 i 9 of 9 Topic 1 of 8 What Went Wrong?
List two or more actions that indicate a lack of mutual respect and present barriers to learning from one another. Of course, the scenario you just saw was an exaggeration, but there are some key points to remember: Project deadlines and other client requests should be reasonable. Be sure to discuss client requests with your team members before agreeing. Provide clear instructions and make sure they are understood. Ask if others have questions, and if they do, answer them patiently. When receiving instructions, respond with your understanding of your role and next steps. This will help identify any misconceptions. When giving feedback or peer review, provide suggestions that are clear improvements. Do not suggest changes just to make the work more like what you would do. Never use sarcasm. Click Next Topic above to continue. i 9 of 9

14 i 2 of 4 Topic 3 of 8 Case 1: Two-Way Learning Case 2: Taking Time
Case 3: Develop Others Two-Way Learning Of course, senior consultants should always be ready to share insights they have gained, but they also should be ready to learn from colleagues and other less experienced employees. For example, several years ago, a senior consultant prepared an actuarial valuation for a pension plan for union and non-union employees of a major client. Because the company had contributed about 150 percent of the member contributions, the plan had a substantial surplus, so the senior consultant recommended that the plan sponsor reduce contributions to simply match member contributions for the next three years. Just a few days before presenting the report, the senior consultant asked another consultant to review it. The reviewer, aware of a growing concern on the part of regulatory authorities and unions regarding “contribution holidays,” suggested that the report should simply indicate that, from a financial and actuarial perspective, the plan had sufficient assets to allow the sponsor to reduce its contributions for the next three years. The senior consultant listened, changed the wording in the report, and had it reprinted. Several years later, unions at the client company sued the plan sponsor and The ABC Client for the amount of the contributions that had not been paid. In the course of the litigation, it became clear that because of the wording in the report The ABC Client did not have any liability. Ultimately the suit failed on appeal. Had the wording not been changed, the outcome could have been very different. i 2 of 4

15 i 3 of 4 Topic 3 of 8 Case 2: Taking Time Case 1: Two-Way Learning
Case 3: Develop Others Taking Time Without a doubt, learning from one another can take time. But the long-term benefits always outweigh short-term costs. For example, it is sometimes quicker and easier for managers and senior consultants to do the work themselves rather than delegating it to less experienced colleagues and then guiding the colleagues and managing the work process. By doing that, however, they not only fail to develop their less experienced colleagues, they also fail to develop themselves. Sharing their insight and learning to manage other people will take more time, but the payoff is better people, better work and a better company. Teams also need to take the time to share information with others in the company. And sometimes that means taking an extra step. For example, a consulting team working with a major client developed a strategy for global communication in a crisis situation. The company now has a highly effective crisis communication plan that has been put to the test twice – during a severe earthquake and during a pipeline fire. In both cases, the plan minimized uncertainty and facilitated immediate information dissemination to critical stakeholders. The ABC Client consulting team prepared a case study for the company intranet, so the essential elements of the plan could be used by other ABC Client teams. Another step the team could take would be to make an internal presentation so they could answer questions and provide face-to-face information. i 3 of 4

16 i 4 of 4 Topic 3 of 8 Case 3: Develop Others Case 1: Two-Way Learning
Case 2: Taking Time Develop Others One of the your best resources for learning is your colleagues, and you do not need to have a formal "mentoring" program to take advantage of opportunities to learn from one another. For example, The ABC Client's mandatory peer review process is an excellent medium to promote learning from one another - as well as, of course, an opportunity to enhance our service to clients and our reputation in the market place. Remember, peer review should always be provided by someone who is capable of producing the work that is being reviewed. Less experienced colleagues should not be offered peer review opportunities in order to learn, although good peer review by a more experienced consultant will help a less experienced consultant learn and develop. The learning process can be completely informal, as well. Colleagues could meet for lunch or after work. A less experienced employee should engage in ongoing discussions with a more experienced colleague who can help him or her develop the skills, knowledge and wisdom that only come with time in the field. Experienced The ABC Client employees should go out of their way to pass along the benefit of their experience. If experienced ABC Client employees do not establish a mutually respectful relationship, newer employees may believe the ABC Client is not interested in developing their skills. They may feel that their career opportunities are limited, and may end up leaving to go to an ABC Client competitor. i 4 of 4

17 i 4 of 4 Topic 4 of 8 Case Study: Mutual Respect Mutual Respect
Most adults recognize and avoid intentionally rude and disrespectful behavior. We know how to disagree with another person’s ideas and still behave in ways that respect the individual. However, sometimes people make assumptions or behave in ways that can be unintentionally disrespectful. Consider this example: A group of employees often gets together to socialize at a nearby restaurant or pub after work. One employee does not participate in activities involving alcohol. She simply declines to attend the gatherings, and makes no other comment. However, some team members perceive her to be unfriendly and distant. She becomes isolated and is sometimes excluded from team activities. Eventually, she moves to another company, and the team loses a valuable resource. Should the employees have stopped socializing after work? Not necessarily, but they should have taken extra steps during work to reach out to the individual and to plan events that everyone could attend. Many of us feel comfortable only with those who are like us and will avoid others whose behavior, beliefs, style, or other characteristics are unfamiliar. However, we gain as individuals and as an organization when we break out of our “comfort zone” and get to know our colleagues. Click Next Topic above to continue. i 4 of 4

18 i 1 of 3 Topic 5 of 8 What Would You Do?
The first part of this lesson provided insight into actions to take and actions to avoid in order to show mutual respect and take advantage of opportunities to learn from one another. However, there is no checklist of steps you can follow. Showing mutual respect, passing along your experience and knowledge in a supportive way, and being willing to learn from others are attitudes that you should develop. Next, we are going to explore the issue of a conflict of interest that leads to personal gain. Consider the following example: You work in the The ABC Client Human Capital Advisory Services (HCAS) business. Your client, Company Alpha, is planning to acquire Company Zed, and your contact at Company Alpha has asked you to advise on corporate management structure at Company Zed if the acquisition goes through. Company Zed is a publicly traded company. You know the news of the proposed acquisition will most likely raise the stock price of Company Zed. Since you are not an really an insider, you can buy stock in Company Zed. Right? Click Next Page in the lower right corner to continue. i 1 of 3

19 i 2 of 3 Topic 5 of 8 What Would You Do?
Is there anything that prohibits you from buying stock in Company Zed? Explain why or why not. Enter your responses in the space provided, and then click Submit. i 2 of 3

20 i 3 of 3 Topic 5 of 8 What Would You Do?
Is there anything that prohibits you from buying stock in Company Zed? Explain why or why not. Actually, there are several factors that prohibit you from purchasing stock in Company Zed. Generally, it is illegal to buy or sell stock in any public company when you have material information that has not been released to the public. It is also always unethical. Confidential client information must be used only for work The ABC Client is doing for the client. Finally, it violates the The ABC Client Code of Professional Conduct and the MMC Code of Business Conduct & Ethics. Click Next Topic above to continue. i 3 of 3

Case 2: Gifts from Suppliers For clear examples of conflicts of interest that lead to personal gain, click the cases above. When you have finished, click Next Topic above to continue. i 1 of 3

22 i 2 of 3 Topic 6 of 8 Case 1: Friends and Relatives
Case 2: Gifts from Suppliers Friends and Relatives Consider this case. You are a The ABC Client consultant, and your client has just asked you to recommend an executive search firm. You and your spouse have a friend who is an excellent executive recruiter, and your spouse wants you to recommend the friend’s firm. That should be okay, right? After all, you are not personally gaining from this recommendation, and it is personal gain that is prohibited by the Code of Professional Conduct. Actually, the concept of “personal” extends to gain that goes to friends and members of your family. In this case, you probably will have to avoid recommending the friend, simply because it gives the appearance of a conflict of interest. However, if you are sincerely convinced that a firm owned by a friend or family member should be among the companies The ABC Client recommends for a contract, you can make the recommendation, provided you comply with all of the following steps: Receive approval from The ABC Client Professionalism Disclose the relationship to the client company Provide names of other qualified firms Allow the client to choose. i 2 of 3

23 Case 2: Gifts from Suppliers
Topic 6 of 8 Case 2: Gifts from Suppliers Case 1: Friends and Relatives Gifts from Suppliers Many suppliers of services that we may recommend to our clients often have a standard practice of providing gifts and entertainment. However, according to the The ABC Client Policy on Gifts and Entertainment to and from Clients, Prospects and Suppliers, “The ABC Client colleagues must not accept any benefit from or give any gift to a client, supplier, or prospective client or supplier (including an insurance carrier) that could create the appearance of impropriety or create a conflict of interest between the colleague's own personal interests and the duty to act in the best interest of The ABC Client and its clients.” All The ABC Client employees are expected to know and follow this policy regarding receiving or giving gifts. A link to the current version of the policy is included under “Resources” at the top of the screen. Take the time to review the document because the end-of-module assessment includes questions on the policy. In one case, an insurance company invited all its major brokers to an end-of-year dinner, and the guidelines permitted The ABC Client employees to attend. During the event, the insurance company gave everyone raffle tickets for a variety of prizes. A The ABC Client consultant won an week-long family trip to an expensive resort. Do the guidelines permit this? After all, the consultant only received the raffle ticket. Receiving the prize was just a matter of luck. No, the consultant could not accept the trip. It was excessive in value, and it would have been very hard for that consultant not to feel obligated to the insurance company offering the reward. Suppliers of services that we may recommend to our clients use often have a standard practice of supplying. The ABC Client colleagues must not accept any benefit from a client, supplier, or prospective client or supplier (including an insurance carrier) that could create the appearance of impropriety or create a conflict of interest between the colleague’s own personal interests and the duty to act in the best interest of The ABC Client and its clients. i 3 of 3

Click the answer that does not violate the The ABC Client policy regarding gifts and entertainment. Response A: Point Value: A supplier representative has season tickets to a community orchestra. She is unable to attend the next concert and offers them to you. She assures you that she regularly offers the tickets to consultants from other firms. Feedback that appears at the end if the user selects A You chose to accept the tickets to the community orchestra. This is not the right choice. Even though the value of the tickets may not be excessive and the offer appears to be a regular business practice, accepting tickets must involve the opportunity to discuss business, and no one from the supplier will be at the event. You also cannot accept the invitation to a weekend business seminar and golf outing, even though this is a common business practice and has a business purpose. The value is extravagant, the invitation involves accepting accommodation, and there is at least the appearance that the gift is an inducement to do business with the asset management firm. You can accept a ticket to join the vice president for sales at an insurance company’s corporate box at a local sporting event. The value of the ticket is not excessive and you will have the opportunity to discuss business. Attending entertainment events should involve the opportunity to discuss business. i 8 of 17

Even though this appears to be a common business practice and has a business purpose, you are not permitted to accept the invitation. The value is extravagant, the invitation involves accepting accommodation, and there is at least the appearance that the gift is an inducement to do business with the asset management firm.
