 THE THREE FORMS OF INTEGRITY:
INTERNAL INTEGRITY - This is your integrity at the deepest level. Is your
integrity just for show because it looks good, or do you truly live your life
with integrity in mind? Internal integrity is about being able to do the right
thing, even if no one is looking and even if you will receive absolutely no
credit for doing so. Doing the right thing, even though it may be the harder
option, despite no one looking will really be a huge step towards ensuring
that you live with integrity.

EXTERNAL INTEGRITY - This is what you portray to those around you. You
have high external integrity when your actions are consistent with your
thoughts and what you are saying. If you are saying one thing, but your
actions say something else - you have some more work to do!
IMAGE INTEGRITY - Similar to external integrity - this is the
image of your integrity. Whilst you might outwardly be
displaying the right actions and taking the right path, can
these actions be thought of in any other way? Are you
leaving your image open to interpretation? people have
great imaginations. When we don't understand something,
we are very quick to make assumptions and forms beliefs
about why something is occurring. Looking after your
image integrity is about ensuring that none of your actions
or words can be misconstrued.

 TIPS FOR DEMONSTRATING INTEGRITY IN THE WORK PLACE:

respectful relationships –
Trust and respect are the ingredients of a

Working as a team builds up trust and

colleagues to ever question your

moral behaviour at all times. This includes
avoiding using the company’s equipment
or resources for personal use, striving to
complete your task before deadlines and
showing enthusiasm and commitment to
your work.
Work Diligently -
This is a very powerful way of
demonstrating integrity as it shows that
you are responsible for your work time.
Making personal calls, surfing the
internet, texting or snacking at the work
desk, are some of the activities that
distract one from working
efficiently Focusing on your job

show your colleagues, manager, and
even customers, that you have strong

you are, what you are
capable of becoming,
what you want out of life
and where you want to
go. Ensure that these are
not merely reflections of
what others expect or
want. Once you know
this, align your values to
this path and steer
straight in all that you
do.
four Simple Ways to Convey Integrity at
Work:
1.Answer the phone:

When people who have a legitimate

reason for calling you are
consistently diverted to voicemail,
what message are you sending
them? That you’re busier than they
are? That their business isn’t
important to you? Or do they simply
see you as evasive? Similar
comments could apply when you
don’t respond to voicemail or email.
2.When you promise something to someone, keep
them informed:
Everyone knows it isn’t always possible to
keep a promise, but the expectation is that
you will at least try. By letting people know
what’s happening you reinforce the fact that
you are making an honest attempt to deliver
and even if you fail, they will respect you for
trying. On the other hand, if they don’t hear
from you they will be more inclined to believe
that you did nothing and weren’t sincere to
begin with.
3.If you have no intention of taking a discussion further with
someone, say so:
This could be a vendor wanting to sell
something to your organization, a potential
joint venture partner pitching a new idea,
or anyone at all. Don’t lead them on under
the guise of being polite or ‘nice’ and then
stop taking their calls. Show some moral
fibre and say no as soon as you decide not
to proceed. People would rather hear that
you aren’t interested early on so that they
don’t waste their time flogging a dead
horse.
4.When you make an appointment, keep
it:
This may sound trite, but how many times have
you been jerked around by someone calling or
texting you at the last minute to postpone a
meeting or a conference call or a simple lunch
date? Obviously, there will always be occasions
when some unforeseen circumstance prevents
you from honouring an appointment, but don’t be
one of those people who makes a habit of it.
Apart from signalling to others that you value
their time less than your own, it sends a message
that you break commitments easily – and that
puts a question mark, no matter how small,
against your reputation for being a person of
your word.
PROFESSIONALMATURITYHELPS IN THE
WORKPLACE:
Professional maturity is the ability to respect other
people’s diversified cultural backgrounds and unique set
of experience In the workplace .judgment should be
based on mutual consensus supported with facts ,rather
than emotional and instincts .it is also ability to control
anger and differences without violence are
settle destruction mature can face unpleasantness
,frustration, discomfort

integrity is worth more than your career”
