Real integrity

Just to follow on from yesterday's blog about individual and organisational integrity (as the news coverage of the Co-operative Bank's ex-chairman continues, and with it ongoing damage to the reputation of a bank whose whole market differentiation is/was ethics).

The "Real Integrity" Report mentioned yesterday also states " it is surely right to seek to influence the organisational environment so that the vast majority of people feel supported in making ethical choice, confident of their ability to do so, and motivated to act with integrity".

This is why the "tone from the top" is so important, to have leaders seen to have integrity, and why so much damage can be done to confidence and trust both outside and inside an organisation.
