Eight Elements of An Ethical Organization
The below are the eight core elements that forms the
ethical bedrock of any successful organization
• Respect: Self-respect and respect for others are critical and helps in avoiding
micromanagement of tasks. Respect is that quality that needs to get cultivated to
avoid any untoward conflicts.
• Honor: People with honor are great ambassadors of righteousness. They know the
intrinsic value of others and often serve as a pivotal force when it comes to boosting
the collective encouragement and morale of the people, recognizing the strong and
weak links and doing the needful for an overall holistic development.
• Integrity: Hiring and motivating people with high integrity is a boon to any
organization as these are the same people that will help in shaping the foundation of
trust the organization has for its clientele while adhering to the organization’s
mission and vision
• Customer focus: “Customer is the King”-the very success of an organization lies
in how it builds its relation with its end users, carefully curating to their aspirations
and needs while constantly improvising the quality of service offered based on their
feedback.
• Result oriented attitude: Identifying the expected results including a room
for foresight is critical. Results are benchmarks and lessons that needs to be made
aware to all to ensure the present performance is lined ethically with sustainable
values cherished by the organization.
• Risk taking: Risk is an essential ingredient for any organization that thrive,
prosper and grow. Risk begets innovation, which nurtures an out of the box
perspective, challenging the traditional orthodox frameworks that have no room for
growth.
• Passion: A successful organization is surrounded by passionate people who
ensures a sustainable environment promoting and nurturing the various facets of
human passion. Without that heat of passion, people subconsciously put in minimal
effort and are demotivated. Hence, it’s vital for any organization to know the passion
of its workforce.
• Persistence: A natural tendency of us humans is the will to persist. The
persistence tied with passion enables the organization and its people to forge ahead
and deliver sustainable results well within the objective expectations. With a strict
focus on customer’s needs and wants, they aren’t satisfied until they achieve the
desired goals and results.
