Different types of conflicts

When you have to make a decision, ask yourself ...

Financial conflicts of interest

  • Do you, someone close to you, or an organisation you're involved with stand to gain or lose financially from the decision?

Non-financial conflicts of interest

  • Is someone close to you, or an organisation you're involved with, likely to be affected by your decision?

Conflict of roles

  • Will a second organisation you have a role in be affected by the decision you're making for the organisation you work for?

Pre-determination

  • Is there anything you've said or done that might make people think you're not going to listen to all relevant information before you make a decision?
