Leadership Lessons with Dr. Saviak ... Integrity Is Everything
Summary
Revenue, employees, and customers will be lost, careers will end, expensive settlements will be paid, and reputations will be ruined. Unable to control themselves and having a culture that created or aided them and without any real checks and balances around them, the day will come when they will lie, take money, falsify records, or engage in sexual misconduct with employees. In leadership, they will have recruited others so now you don’t have one problem you have multiple amoral individuals working together as a team. I’ve seen the entire leadership suddenly “retired” by the Board of Directors who grew tired of scandals. It may be regulatory action, litigation, bad press, angry investors, unhappy customers, or major financial losses that finally make it impossible to conceal.
