Most companies think they have integrity... until they get boycotted, protested and skewered in the press. They’ll punish and apologize for lapses but have no clue about prevention.

Rob is a former Federal Prosecutor who prosecuted spy Aldrich Ames, he went on to found the Trust and Safety Department for eBay and the integrity training program for Airbnb: two companies with business models dependent on trust that had to invent the rules in the new frontiers of e-commerce and platforms.
