Are Your Employees Selling You Out? Your Role In Guiding Employees to Avoid Infringement and Lost Rights.
In 2006, a Coca-Cola employee offered
company secrets for sale to competitors for $1.5 million. Last year, she was sentenced to eight years
in jail. Could this happen to your
clients or your company? Are you
sure?
Employee misuse of copyrights,
trademarks and trade secrets is on the rise in the Internet Age, posing a
serious risk of lost rights, crippling liability, damage awards and destroyed
business relationships. In fact, a 2002
study of 1600 companies estimated that the surveyed companies were likely to
experience annual intellectual property losses of more than $50 billion. As business managers or counsel, you are at
the front line to fight this battle against employee misuse through policies,
training and vigilance. Mark Partridge
will guide you through the rights, risks and practices you must learn to win
this critical battle.
This program will show you how to
recognize and address internal intellectual property misuse and to create
effective policies to avoid liability, reduce risk and protect
rights.
