Justify the position of the value in the list. Include any challenges to using these values ​​consistently when making personal and organizational decisions. Integrity I have benefited from integrity in my workplace. I was assigned the task of training a difficult new employee and reporting back to management with daily reviews. My manager trusted that I would keep all our meetings and correspondence confidential. She also expected me to be honest in my assessments of the employee's progress and she counted on me to provide adequate training. Even though we had huge personality differences and different work styles, I treated her like any new intern. By acting with integrity, I earned the respect and trust of management, which resulted in a promotion. I put integrity at the top of my list because I believe that acting with integrity is a core value in any ethical decision. To me, integrity means adhering to a high set of values ​​and moral standards. I could have treated our new hire poorly or unfairly, or talked to members of my team about his progress, but that would be falling short of my beliefs. Acting with integrity is not easy. It means adhering to a set of high values, even if my friends are doing something wrong. It means looking at a situation objectively and making a conscious decision every day to live up to those higher standards. Accountability I have seen accountability play an important role in the workplace. My mentor taught me to take responsibility for my mistakes and not point fingers. One of their accounts had a pricing error and we charged them $50,000. This amounted to an oversight she had made. Instead of pointing fingers ...... middle of paper ...... edition, members of our department rallied to support it. As a department, we raised over $400 to donate to charity in his brother's name. I chose compassion as my fifth value because I believe that compassion develops relationships with people and shows concern for the well-being of others. This value is last on my list because I believe that other values ​​play a more important role in ethical decisions, although compassion is no less important. Having compassion for others demonstrates an investment in the relationship and that decisions are not entirely based on business, but also on the well-being of others. Compassion can be difficult and exhausting. When a decision impacts the lives of many people, it can be difficult to think about the feelings of those involved. Without compassion, a decision can be more black and white and easier to make.
