  Facilitator:  Nonprofit Network

  The more you understand about embezzlement, the easier it is to recognize the signs and take steps to keep your company's financial assets secure. Treasurers, Finance Committee members, Board Members, Executive Directors and Bookkeepers will all gain critical information about managing your nonprofits financial resources and futures. 

  A Board's primary responsibility is protecting the assets of the organization and the most common embezzlement is by employees or internal staff. Come learn how to spot signs of embezzlement or misuse of funds, how to protect your business, steps you should take and how to get the most out of your audit. 

  In this session we will discuss:

  1.    Raising the awareness that embezzlement does happen

  2.    Encouraging leaders to give high priority to instituting safeguards against embezzlement 

  3.    Debunking the myth that having an audit fixes the problem

  4.    Providing some tools/structure for participants to employ back at their shop to enhance safeguards.
