Advancing Justice in the Workplace

A Conversation About Accountability

Holding colleagues and institutions accountable for inappropriate behavior can be challenging on many levels. “Everyone knows” something inexcusable is going on, but often nothing seems to come of it. Consequences are not communicated and accountability is not upheld.

This year’s Edie Kochenour Memorial Event will be a conversation about personal and institutional accountability in these situations. We will address questions such as What is our responsibility to speak up?  What are our rights in terms of transparency to due process?  If nobody does anything, are we collectively condoning bad behavior?  How can institutions handle these situations more effectively?

Panelists include

  • Leslie Francis, PhD, JD, Distinguished Professor in Law and Philosophy
  • Amos Guiora, PhD, JD, Professor of Law, Distinguished Fellow
  • Mitzi Montoya, PhD, Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs
  • Saundra Stokes, MPA, Chief Mission Impact Officer, YWCA Utah
