  • 2018 Inspection Grant Thornton LLP (Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois)
    2018 Inspection Grant Thornton LLP (Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois) April 28, 2020 THIS IS A PUBLIC VERSION OF A PCAOB INSPECTION REPORT PORTIONS OF THE COMPLETE REPORT ARE OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH SECTIONS 104(g)(2) AND 105(b)(5)(A) OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002 PCAOB RELEASE NO. 104-2020-010 Executive Summary Our 2018 inspection report on Grant Thornton LLP provides information on our inspection to assess the firm’s compliance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) standards and rules and other applicable regulatory and professional requirements. This executive summary offers a high-level overview of: (1) Part I.A of the report, which discusses deficiencies (“Part I.A deficiencies”) in certain issuer audits that were of such significance that we believe the firm, at the time it issued its audit report(s), had not obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence to support its opinion on the issuer's financial statements and/or internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), and (2) Part I.B of the report, which discusses deficiencies that do not relate directly to the sufficiency or appropriateness of evidence the firm obtained to support its opinion(s) but nevertheless relate to instances of non-compliance with PCAOB standards or rules. The fact that we have included a deficiency in this report — other than those deficiencies for audits with incorrect opinions on the financial statements and/or ICFR — does not necessarily mean that the issuer’s financial statements are materially misstated or that undisclosed material weaknesses in ICFR exist.

  • Mandating Diversity: the Inclusion Clause
    Call to Action Sara Lee's General Counsel: Making Diversity A Priority By Melanie Lasoff Levs For some committed general counsel, the standard talk about diversity is only a starting point. Recently, many corporate attorneys decided it was time to demand specific actions and results-with very real consequences. In spring 2004, Sara Lee General Counsel Roderick Palmore created "A Call to Action: Diversity in the Legal Profession," a document reaffirming a commitment to diversity in the law profession and taking action to ensure that corporate legal departments and law firms increase the numbers of women and minority attorneys hired and retained. And if law firms don't, the document states, "We [the undersigned corporate legal department representatives] further intend to end or limit our relationships with firms whose performance consistently evidences a lack of meaningful interest in being diverse." (See the sidebar in this article for the complete text.) Palmore wrote the Call to Action to build on a previous manifesto: former BellSouth General Counsel Charles Morgan's "Diversity in the Workplace: A Statement of Principle," written in 1999. "In that [document], signatories espoused an interest in diversity and the principle of diversity, which was a fabulous thing at the time," Palmore says. "But it struck me that not enough has happened. The progress of the profession-and more specifically the progress of large law firms-had stagnated." The Call to Action takes the Statement of Principle a step further, Palmore adds. "Its purpose is to take the general principle of interest in advancing diversity and translate that into action, into a commitment to act on, to make decisions about retaining law firms based in part on the diversity performance of those law firms." Discussion around the need for a Call to Action began in November 2003, when a group of general counsel gathered at the invitation of the Minority Corporate Counsel Association (MCCA®), and the Association of the Corporate Counsel (ACC).

  • Hewlett Packard Enterprise 3000 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, CA, 94304 Children’S Rights Summit 2017 December 5, 2017 | Hewlett Packard Enterprise | Palo Alto, CA
    Tuesday 5 December 2017 Hewlett Packard Enterprise 3000 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, CA, 94304 Children’s Rights Summit 2017 December 5, 2017 | Hewlett Packard Enterprise | Palo Alto, CA Welcome to the 4th Annual CHILDREN’S RIGHTS SUMMIT, an event that has evolved in substance and scope every year. This year is no exception. Inaugurating in 2014, we asked ourselves, “What can we do for children’s rights?” We created a community meant to challenge the status quo and broaden the reach by engaging other innovative thinkers in solutions needed to realize rights of children and youth. In 2015, we demanded of ourselves and our community, “If we can, we must.” Last year, we flipped the script to challenge ourselves to driving toward solutions by agreeing, “We can, so we must.” In 2017, a time of unprecedented challenges, we find ourselves forced to push ourselves further as a community to figure out what we must do and create to make a meaningful impact. Today, we ask one simple question: “WHY CAN’T WE?” Why can’t we do better? Why can’t we do better for kids in multiple systems? Why can’t we help children burdened by the place and circumstances we put them in overcome those very challenges to achieve a safe, happy and healthy live? Why can’t we get kids to the point of success, much less survival? We are a community ripe with talent, resources, commitment, innovation and reinvention. Why can’t we put that power into play to make life better for these kids? Today we find ourselves settling for a system of children’s justice that fights only to reach a paltry, bare minimum standard at best.
