Asking Hard Questions about Ethical Behavior
Among its core values, electronics manufacturer Texas Instruments (TI) includes a respect for individuals, a commitment to long-term relationships, a concern for the environment, and a sense of duty to the communities where it does business.
TI encourages employees to use the following guidelines whenever they have a concern about whether a business action is consistent with the company's values. This information is provided to TI employees on a business-card-size mini-pamphlet to carry with them. You can use the same guidelines when faced with ethical challenges of your own.
Is the action legal?
Does it comply with our values?
If you do it, will you feel bad?
How will it look in the newspaper?
If you know it's wrong, don't do it!
If you're not sure, ask.
Keep asking until you get an answer.
