collaborated with Fordham University accounting professor Barbara Porco to design an "ethical toolkit" to instruct business students on ethical conduct. The kit—which includes interactive video, role-playing scenarios, and case studies—has been made available free to colleges and universities around the U.S. The subject of ethics was top of mind for Flynn in 2005 when he took over as CEO of the New York-based company, which was facing federal prosecution over allegedly fraudulent tax shelter deals.
