LRN has issued another important report. In its latest report, The 2024 Benchmark of Ethical Culture Report, LRN has focused on the critical issue of corporate culture. LRN is a pacesetter and the leader in reliable studies on complex ethics and compliance issues. If not properly promoted or maintained, a defective culture can lead to serious misconduct, government investigation, reputational damage, and collateral harm. On the other hand, a positive and effective culture is a company's most valuable intangible asset, as it is tied directly to increased financial performance and sustainable growth. Over the past few years, business leaders have embraced what compliance and governance professionals already knew: companies with strong ethical cultures outperform other companies with weaker cultures. Employees at ethical companies are more productive, more satisfied, less likely to seek a new job, and more committed to the company's mission.
