The initial phase of the corporate responsibility project included two workshops held in 2003. The first, which took place at the House of the Academy, focused on a paper by John Reed regarding values and corporate responsibility. The second workshop, a series of panel discussions held in New York City, considered the responsibilities of six professional and profession-like roles—auditor, lawyer, journalist, investment banker, corporate director, and regulator—in relation to corporate conduct. The participants in each of the two workshops included both academics and practitioners. The final product of this project phaseis a book, titled "Restoring Trust in American Business," which includes the papers presented at both workshops (as revised by their authors), written commentaries submitted by other participants, and the project steering committee's own consensus statement and policy recommendations. The committee circulated its findings to the corporate community, to regulators and legislators, and to the broad public.
