Don Moore interview on Conflicts of Interest
"It's only when the costs associated with a particular conflict of interest such as the dramatic bankruptcies at Enron and WorldCom take place that the voting public actually starts paying enough attention that it becomes possible for government and legislators to be forced to take action to regulate the conflicts of interst and try to control its greater costs."
People have used the term "conflict of interest" in a number of different ways. Don Moore's research centers on conflicts of interest as clashes between someone's private motivations with their professional obligations. Watch the three part video of Moore as he provides examples of some professions where conflicts occur and offers responses to solutions.
