Confronting Corporate and Business Ethics Issues
In todays world of greed fueled collapsing lending institutions, Enron's, Exxon Valdez's, MCI's, pharmaceutical deaths, scientists, doctors, and politicians bought and paid for by special interests seeking profits, spoiling of 3rd world landscapes and water supplies, and other corporate and business dealings that have come to light, followed by public outcries, we can easily note that what all of us truly want is nothing less than integrity.
We all desire, and even demand, that our governments, politicians, businesses, employers, religions, healthcare systems, educational systems, media, and all of the world have integrity. We demand integrity of our friends, our parents, and our spouses and children.
But all too often, and unfortunately, the very last place we come to notice a lack of integrity, and the last place we will demand integrity, is all too often in our very own selves. Surely, we must all seek and demand integrity within our own selves first, before the world at large will reflect such back to us. We must demand it in ourselves, as well as demand it in the outer world.
The League is dedicated to first demanding the highest integrity within our own selves, and to expose all that lacks integrity, while standing up for all that furthers such integrity in the greater world. It is only in courageously exposing such lacks of integrity in our own selves, and in the world we operate, that we can then choose to simply make a new choice, therein bettering both ourselves, and our world. The League recognizes that we live in a world of abundance, with more than enough here that is here for all of us. The wealth of countries belongs to all of its people, and all deserve to share in the wealth.
We recognize that the resources and abundances in this world are also here not just for this generation, but are to also be the inheritance of the future generations who surely shall follow.
We salute all who work toward exposing the non-integrous, and we salute all who encourage and demand the highest ethics in business and corporate structures, as we all equally must rely on these institutions for our jobs, livelihoods, health, and wellbeing.
