In this kickoff episode of Beyond the Frameworks, a special AccountabiliTea Podcast series on business, governance, and leadership, guest host Michele Crymes (Legal & Policy Expert) sits down with David Mparutsa, Ethics 1st Advisor and Head of Enterprise & Supply Chain Development.

Together, they examine the ripple effects of the U.S. Executive Order halting enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). What does this pause mean for global anti-corruption efforts? How are small and medium enterprises (SMEs) navigating shifting expectations on the ground? And why is collective action more important than ever?

Tune in for a timely, thought-provoking conversation at the intersection of global policy and local business realities.
