Basic Reliability vs. Integrity

Integrity is said to be weighted as the highest characteristic in leadership. But what is integrity? 

Most people act on integrity by being honest, trustworthy, keeping their word, and doing what they say they will do. Isn’t that just basic reliability?

Extraordinary people act on integrity by being intentional in choosing their thoughts and actions based on their personal values. The core of integrity has more to do with clearly defined personal values and acting in alignment with those values.

Let us serve our integrity by being in harmony with our personal values and use ourselves as our personal role model today.
