Integrity Matters Broadcasts
November 18, 2003
LEADERSHIP AND ACCOUNTABILITY - Employees and Employers;
Productivity and Integrity
Dear Friends:
On October 3, we forwarded our CEO guidelines related to Leadership Responsibilities.
Many of you read and responded to our 9 C's of Leadership, offering to assist
us with your support and suggestions. In fact, the input was quite instructive
and we have strengthened the document, reflecting several recommendations.
Please find attached our November 17, 2003, updated version, ready for you
to apply to yourself and your own organization. Our survey process is simple.
On a scale of 1 - 10, (1 is low and 10 is high); please complete your own evaluation
on how well your leadership lives up to the fulfillment of these nine areas
of accountability. Consider forwarding us your survey results. We will present
the findings, anonymously, in early 2004.
Second, review our November 12, 2003, Integrity Matters column by clicking
here. The response, so far, has been gratifying. Some readers
have brought this Integrity Matters column into employee meetings,
making a copy for attendees, discussing issues and teaching the importance
of honesty, competency and loyalty. Let us know if you have positive results
following a similar approach. The column is titled: "Integrity in the
workplace never takes a day off even if the boss calls in sick." Hope
this assists you in your efforts to improve productivity.
As we celebrate Thanksgiving in the United States, we wish for our friends
all over the world a prosperous 4th Quarter.
Remember: very soon we will be releasing Integrity Matters. As many of you
already know, Dan Halloran and I have been writing the book, together, for
the past six months and look forward to seeing it in bookstores in early 2004.
Sincerely,
Jim
