The Dark Triad: Three Unconscious Threats to Objectivity for Fraud Examiners

Description

While fraud examiners often have the best intentions, certain mental processes can interfere with our objectivity. Three particular maladies, referred to as illusory superiority, bounded ethicality and confirmation bias, can indirectly lead fraud examiners to flawed conclusions and examinations — which can directly affect their credibility. In this session, fraud examiners will learn methods to ensure that they conduct a fair and impartial fraud examination to the best of their abilities.

Create mental triggers to improve ethical outcomes

Determine how perception affects decision-making
