WEBINAR —  Pressure, Culture, and Ethical Risk: Seeing Trouble Before it Starts

August 25, 2026
12:00pm ET
Virtual

Presented by former FBI informant, bestselling author, and behavioral ethics expert Tom Hardin.

In this gripping webinar, behavioral ethics speaker Tom Hardin (“Tipper X”) pulls back the curtain on the real-life story behind his cooperation with the FBI during a historic Wall Street insider trading investigation. Moving past surface-level compliance lectures, Tom uses his firsthand experience to demonstrate how easily minor compromises escalate into systemic organizational disasters. He argues that traditional compliance training fails because it treats ethics as a box-checking exercise, ignoring the reality that most lapses are committed by well-meaning professionals operating under poorly managed psychological pressure.

Drawing from his unique vantage point assisting the U.S. Department of Justice, Tom delivers a raw, analytical breakdown of how misconduct takes root in high-performing environments. Participants will explore the mechanics of rationalization and the structural vulnerabilities that allow ethical erosion to go unnoticed. This event provides a battle-tested blueprint to help executives and compliance leaders look beneath the surface, spot behavioral red flags, and transform passive policies into an active, protective culture of accountability.
