Why Bother?

Because we can do better. Because caring we thrive and grabbing we fail. Because ethics and civil society require effort, and the payoff is peaceful and resilient communities.

No promises, but an ethical life usually leads to abundance, strong friendships, team effectiveness, and opportunity. People want you around because you make things better.

Every “good” system of ethics, those with practical, sustainable, real-world success, puts civilization and people over profit and power. Conversely, “bad” systems cause predictable and avoidable harm (e.g., companies prohibiting bio breaks).

Ethically conscientious people pay attention to consequences, sincerity, and dependability. Listening attentively, they remember and care about others, accept responsibility for mistakes, and approach relationships with calm and supportive warmth.

Good or bad, each of us has an ethic — a unique way of moving through life — how we make it all work. Similarly, every company has an ethic. Good ethics are sustainable, healthy, responsible, and they improve society. Bad ethics leave trails of conflict and destruction.
