“How Valuable Are Your Ethics or What is Your Price to Compromise Your Ethics?”
Everyone in business will eventually face a real crisis of conscience at some point or points in his or her career. Before facing that critical choice, I believe most people would say it is easy to think that they will act ethically, no matter what the personal cost. However, what will you really do when you are faced with the personal cost of losing the job you love (or desperately need) and placing your family’s welfare and your own self worth in jeopardy?

Swallowing your Anger
How do you react if someone over steps your boundaries or makes an inappropriate comment towards you? Do you feel anxious or awkward? Your body is a great compass and will usually highlight in some way, that you are being faced with inappropriate behaviour and that you may need to take some action towards the person who has made the snide remark, or an unsolicited criticism towards you.

Finding True North With the Help of a Child
"Dad, I want you to have this" my young son said as he held up a toy compass to place in my hands. "You can keep it on your desk so that you'll always know where you are and what direction to head in." It was one of those priceless parenting moments.
