Week 5: Discussion Board (Values & Ethical Choices)
Integrity can be described as a congruence (match) between what we think, say and do in our personal lives and our professional lives. It is indicative of honesty, moral strength, and courage. The concept of “core values” can be described as those values that guide our behaviors and serve as a vision for our life. As noted in this week’s course material: “When you are able to identify your core values, you have a clear picture of the kind of person you want to be and the kind of life you want to have”.
This week’s topic challenges us to gain greater clarity and awareness of our personal values and how they align with our career and life choices. For this week’s discussion board, please review the 10 Core Values of Zappos Company Culture (Week 5: Required Resources) and pick two of the Zappos core values that resonate with your own personal values. Discuss why you picked those two and how they could play out in the workplace.
Next, provide two examples of how your selected core values can support ethical behavior in the workplace.
