Episode 195 - Dr. Bettina Palazzo
In this episode of The Ethics Experts, Nick welcomes Dr. Bettina Palazzo.
Bettina’s fascination with business ethics began in the early 90s, and once she realized how rich and exciting the field was, she never looked back. She suffered through the cumbersome but rewarding effort of getting her head around the philosophical and economical foundations of business ethics, won a prize for her PhD. thesis and rode off into the sunset to join KPMG. There she helped to build their business ethics consulting services. Tough pioneer work at that time! In 2003 she started her own ethics advisory. Along the way, she’s learned that you can’t squeeze ethics into checklists, and that unethical companies make for unhappy people.
Bettina received the "Compliance Influencer of the Year 2024" award from the International Compliance Association, a recognition of her passion for turning ethics and compliance into something everyone wants to be a part of. Whether through her blogposts, LinkedIn, or her online community – the Compliance Cappuccino Club, she brings fresh, relatable insights to the compliance community. Fun fact: she met her husband, Guido Palazzo, at a business ethics conference—proof that ethics really is her love story!
