HR Professionals Questioning Why Internal Fraud Not Caught Sooner

From Nazi Germany to the recent U.S. General Services Administration, evil has triumphed because good people did nothing.

Many people are asking why the rampant spending at the GSA was not reported earlier.

In a recent HR-oriented meeting, nearly half the attendees said they had experienced similar situations within their organizations which went undetected and unreported for long periods of time. Employee reluctance to “rat-out” fellow staffers and no in-place system for reporting such activities were cited as the main reasons for failure to act.

Indeed, a new study soon-to-be announced indicates that internal malfeasance lasts an average of 18-months before being discovered.

One suggested solution is to encourage an organizational culture that builds mutual trust.

Another way is to improve vetting and onboarding programs. A new, cloud-based service for small and medium sized companies is now offering a free-trial subscription. See the detailed story here or go to http://ovationtechnologies.com, hit the Get Started Now tab and use the promo code ISIAPR2012.

Question:

What are some pitfalls implementing a company reorganization?

Answer:

“The major risk in making any change to an organization is not fully researching the change before you move forward with an implementation. It’s important to understand exactly what your provider’s cloud solution brings to the table. Be sure to research different providers and their offerings. Also, do not execute a plan unless you have the resources in place to help you get there. Focusing too heavily on today rather than what the future brings can hinder your organization’s vision and future growth,” Louis Hayner, Executive Vice President & Chief Sales Officer of WVT Communications Group
