Conversation with Dr. Daniel Clark on the value of whistleblower orientation in business
Description
In this episode of my podcast, I speak with Dr. Daniel Clark from Ivey Business School in Ontario, Canada. Daniel’s research focuses on the cognition and decision-making of entrepreneurs, and his recent work includes exploring the value of whistleblower orientation and practice in entrepreneurial ventures and its intersection with self-regulation, governance, and performance. We discussed whistleblowing in the context of the principal-agent relationship and why business owners should pay attention to and promote a robust and independent whistleblowing system by taking a long-term view rather than suppressing whistleblowers for short-term gains.
