Hi Friends,
I discovered an interesting word today: Rectitude.
Quite curious about its meaning, I looked it up right away in the dictionary, and this is what it said:
• The quality of thinking or behaving in a correct or honest way.
• Moral uprightness; righteousness.
• The quality or condition of being correct in judgment.
• The quality of being straight.
In the work we do, we often discuss the core values of our client organizations with them. Interestingly, one of the most important and most common values of organizations is Integrity – voila we are back at Rectitude! Having said that, a quick run through of the newspapers – and the spate of corporate scams, wrong doings & missteps - brings us to the dismaying conclusion that while it is much strutted in placards around corporate board rooms, in reality - it is often a scarce commodity.
How important is it to live this value?
