Overview

Everyone has the best of intentions of behaving with integrity, but "Sidetracked," a book by Harvard professor Francesca Gino, shows that certain factors can lead us to cross ethical boundaries. What are these red flags, and how can legislators and staff cultivate an environment that encourages honesty? In this short interview, Gino discusses measures to keep yourself and those around you from getting sidetracked.
