Leading an employee investigation is never fun. It can be stressful, shocking, and emotionally taxing on all sides.

Even tougher: Most HR professionals get thrown headfirst into their first employee investigation without any formal training around what to say, what to ask, and how to do it all while navigating the tricky balance of empathy, neutrality, and data collection.

Tune into this conversation to hear from Ethena’s VP of People, Melanie Naranjo, and Medina McKelvey LLP’s Partner and Head of Advice & Counsel, Chantelle Cappa Egan, walk you through an in-depth walkthrough on best practices for navigating employee investigations.
