Occasionally, we forget about this issue, especially when we face moral dilemmas.
The temptation to do something unethical or cross over the line started when:
we're too enthusiastic to reach our goals,
we might be too afraid of being different from everyone else's,
we really want to speed up the process,
we trap on our marginal thinking (purpose: to evaluate whether something has a greater benefit than its original cost)
and many more reasons.
However, my lecturer, the guru of Project Management in Germany, Prof Frank Fischer, has reminded us to remain ethical at work despite uncertainty, ambiguity, and instability.
The people who sacrifice their integrity by breaking rules "softly" will also end up paying a high price in the end.
The professor said that, as good leaders, we must not be influenced by the unethical attempts of those around us.
If we have to choose, just take an ethical but slow and lonely path, because... gradually, the efforts will build into a masterpiece.
The truth will reveal that the winner is always the person with high integrity.
