the same high standards of ethics they expect of others and demonstrate those high standards in everything they say and do. 9. Promote a company culture where ethics is for everybody. Ethics is not just reserved for your management. It is for everyone, every day. Everyone in your company needs to be trained and persuaded to act ethically. No exceptions! 10. Present, preserve and promote ethics by rewarding ethical behavior. Develop a compensation system that provides a component of ben- efits and rewards for ethical behavior integrated with per- formance-based incentives. People who consistently dem- onstrate they are driven by ethical behavior need to be rec- ognized and celebrated. There must be a clear connection between ethical conduct and potential career advancement. The consequences of a person’s unethical behavior need to be discussed immediately and be accompanied by an alteration to their career advancement within the company. The following quote presents a clear image of what happens in organizations where ethics are not presented, preserved and promoted. “If ethics are poor at the top, that behavior is copied down through the organization.” In- ventor Robert Noyce Glenn Ebersole, P.E. is the strategic vice president of business development/mar- keting and a member of the strategic leadership teamat Hollenbach Construction, headquartered in Boyer- town, PA. continued from page 6B Business ethics . . . for “Maintenance Tech of the Year.” ■
