Action Steps for Enhancing Your Integrity
• Establish integrity as your top priority. Make it the cornerstone of all your actions and decisions.
• Never compromise your integrity by rationalizing a situation as an
"isolated incident.” People are watching everything you do – there are
no "isolated incidents." Firmly decide where your boundaries are,
communicate those boundaries, and then stay within them.
• Never allow achieving results to become more
important than the means to their achievement. For long-term sustained
results, how you win is just as important as winning, itself.
• For greater success as a leader, maintain your integrity and keep
earning employee trust by continually asking yourself these three
questions:
1. Are integrity and trust my top priorities? Do I subject my life and work to the highest scrutiny each and every day?
2. Are there areas of conflict between what I believe, what I say, and how I behave?
3. Has compromise crept into my day-to-day life...
"under the radar"?
Here's one you can take to the bank: As leaders, our integrity will be
tested every day in both big and small ways. Those of us who pass those
tests will stay on the road to success. Those of us who don't, won't!
