Conflicts of interest are an ongoing challenge for public institutions, elected officials and organizations alike. There may be guardrails in place to manage conflicts of a personal nature, but role-related conflicts remain difficult to define and handle. Situations like these come about when professional, financial or interpersonal interests clash with public interest, thereby opening up the potential for biased decision-making or undue advantage.
In this discussion, former Quebec City mayor Régis Labeaume will sit down with Antoine Robitaille, a columnist and keen observer of the political scene, to delve into the grey area where ethics, optics and power dynamics overlap. They will touch on:
- The difference between real, apparent and potential conflicts
- The delicate balance between the need for transparency and bureaucratic overzealousness
- The tools available to limit abuse.
It promises to be a fascinating conversation that will provide food for thought on how to gain the public’s trust while ensuring decision-makers can do their job efficiently and with legitimacy.
Don’t miss this chance to learn more about conflicts of interest and broaden your perspective.
