Workplace Spirituality…



Workplace Spirituality…

Ethics and Values at workplace… Is your workplace ethical?

Dear Readers, yesterday we talked about workplace spirituality. Today I am taking another aspect of spirituality into consideration which is Ethics and Values.

Our Value system depends on our ethics and Ethics is about behavior. In the face of dilemma, it is about doing the right thing. Ethical managerial leaders and their people take the “right” and “good” path when they come to the ethical choice points. One should wonder that how ethics and values can affect our business environment? So my answer is when we ethically drive our values, these are the key areas which get affected. These are:-

Wisdom and Knowledge: The capacity to take information and convert it to something useful.
Self Control: The ability to avoid unethical temptations. The capacity to take the ethical path requires a commitment to the value of acting with temperance.
Justice and Fair Guidance: The fair treatment of people. Justice is served when individuals perceive that they receive a fair return for the energy and effort expended.
Transcendence: The recognition that there is something beyond oneself more permanent and powerful than the individual.
Transcendence: The recognition that there is something beyond oneself more permanent and powerful than the individual.
Courage and Integrity: The courage to act ethically and with integrity. These values involve discerning right from wrong and acting accordingly.
Now these values once gets reflected in one’s behavior in particular to employees within an organization, it is more likely that employees will end up creating a fair enough value system within the organization which will go on for years to come.

Tomorrow we will take discussion further and will conclude the topic. Till then, Good Night… OPEN UP…!!! And Stay Happy… :)

Comments and suggestions are always welcome… :)
