Everything That Is Legal Isn't Always Ethical

Ms. Libby Watts Jordan, member UNA Board of Trustees & Director of Cultural Tourism, was our inspiration for the week. I was glad to have a female speaker, because for some reason there voices keep you involved and help you pay more attention. This week forum started off  with the phrase " Things change over Time". Our topic for the week was Honesty in the Business World. 

Ms. Jordan told us that we are all salesmen, and that is so true. We go are around everyday parading ourselves to be what we want people to see us as. We sale our intelligence by our school work, we sale our leadership through our activities, and so on. ( This is a complete side-note, but she gave us a stat that stated that 95% of cheaters never get caught.) I really loved her stories they were quite powerful.

At the End of this I came to realize that when you come to face 'conflicts of interests' you sometimes have look at your morals and do what you do because it is the right thing to do. Be Honest and Up Front!
