Justice In Business

vs. unfairness

Taking personal responsibility to uphold what is pure, right, and true

To practice Justice, I will:

  • speak out for what is pure, right, and true
  • educate myself to keep my motives pure
  • promote reform, not revenge
  • reject bias in myself and others
  • respect rules

    Justice vs. Flexibility

    Effective business leadership demands a delicate balance between two seemingly opposing character qualities: Justice and Flexibility. While Justice ensures consistency, predictability, and a sense of equity, it can also foster employee trust and loyalty. When rules and expectations are clear and applied consistently, everyone receives equal opportunities and recognition based on merit and performance. However, the business world is rarely static. Unexpected situations arise, and sometimes, adhering to rigid rules can hinder progress and growth. Flexibility allows for adaptation and responsiveness to changing employee needs, evolving market conditions, technological advancements, and unforeseen challenges.

    Balancing these two requires transparent and open communication and building a connection among the staff that fends off pettiness. Maintaining security through consistent application of character-based principles will give employees the stability they need to thrive in a Flexible environment.

    This month, how will you balance Justice and Flexibility?
