    When the Tide Goes Out

    In the premiere episode of Turnaround Talk, titled "When the Tide Goes Out", host Kate Foy is joined by experts Paul Curby, Scott McLintock, and Robyn Karam to unpack the hidden, structural, and often underestimated risk of fraud in Australian businesses. Far from being just a back-office anomaly, fraud often stems from organisational culture, leadership blind spots, and economic pressure. The episode explores the fraud triangle—opportunity, motivation, and rationalisation—and how it explains the slow, slippery path from minor infractions to major criminal behaviour. Listeners will hear compelling case studies, from senior executives who bypassed internal controls to forensic discoveries sparked only by a fraudster’s deathbed confession. The panel also highlights early red flags such as a reluctance to take leave, living beyond one’s means, or resisting oversight. They share practical prevention strategies, including whistleblower platforms, data analytics, and the importance of fostering a speak-up culture. This episode is essential listening for board members, senior executives, financial controllers, and public sector leaders across Sydney and New South Wales. Whether you're responsible for risk, compliance, or governance—or simply want to protect your organisation—"When the Tide Goes Out" offers both a sobering reality check and actionable steps to help you stay ahead of fraud before it’s too late.
