Full stop period. They are not perfect, but they are motivated by core beliefs and values that are based on truth. No matter what you see and hear in the press, most people want leaders who possess and consistently act with integrity.
Every other Tuesday, WOMEN AT LIBERTY provides a platform for a variety of voices and resources to develop, encourage, and strengthen women leaders. Today's Leadership Tuesdays' post talks about the importance of leaders modeling integrity within the organization.
In order to have integrity in your organization, you as a leader must communicate your expectations, demonstrate your values, and correct behavior that is inconsistent with a comitment to integrity. Anything less leaves the door open for behavior that will eventually manifest itself in acts that are detrimental to others and the organization.
Integrity has the opposite effect. Integrity builds trust. It builds trust and currency within and outside of the organization. People are willing to be patient in difficult times when you have built trust with them through your consistent commitment to them and truth-telling.
