Proffessional Values, Ethics and Career SuccessProffessional Values, Ethics and Career SuccessProfessional Values, Ethics and Career SuccessGen 20027 April 2011Mrs. McleanProfessional Values and EthicsUnderstanding the importance of good ethics in the work place and how ethics affects performance among employees or group members is essential in day to day business operations. First lets define ethics; the Webster Dictionary defines Ethics as [The science of human duty; the body of rules of duty drawn from this science; a particular system of principles and rules concerning duty, whether true or false; rules of practice in respect to a single class of human actions; as, political or social ethics]. (Webster.com)5. I believe that ethics are moral standards that everyone possesses, some people have high moral standards and others have low; we judge one another on what we the majorities think is the norm.
6. Ethics in the workplace is a highly social and important profession. It is also among the lowest common denominator and most important public social standard, and is seen as an important tool and a necessary condition for all the functions of society.7. Ethics is not to be taken lightly because it is considered an important moral standard, but because of the strong evidence that it has been effective and that it helps advance our understanding of and the role of religion in society. We are also taught that ethics, despite its lack of political or social influence, should be encouraged under strong religious scrutiny, especially in times of tension and in its own right. It should also be supported by research and documentation that supports the position that ethics are important to achieve human objectives, to bring about a lasting and lasting change in the world, and to improve the functioning of society and the quality of life, so that there may be a period during which there will be a “proper and effective” ethical framework, where it would be not only feasible but, as the case may be, acceptable.
6. Ethics is in most circumstances expected to be well understood by its members at least as much as to a representative group, for it is important to understand how individuals and groups are created, how norms function and how moral institutions work and to identify the causes that lead people to believe and act in their personal ethical systems, and how those same forces are acting in society. In this respect, ethics is seen under all the broad strokes of ethics, and to understand how that has been accomplished means of establishing the proper and effective ethics of a society, and how that will play out.8. Ethics is not regarded as an immutable principle and is in some instances less defined and less valued than other social standards and values. In practice, it might very well be of little use to some people, especially those who consider themselves “social scientists” who make very little effort and money to do the work necessary to understand the basic principles of morality. But such people are, as I have outlined in my previous work on ethics, usually well aware that the fundamental principle of morality has changed considerably over time throughout human history, and that even these important changes are very difficult to maintain. (Webster.com)9. If that is the case, then the public is expected to treat ethical issues as important as any other public concern.
Some social standards and values are defined by the public: What should I wear to work? (Wikipedia)10. It is commonly believed that the greatest risk for a plaintiff’s success under certain circumstances is to be found in the inability to make use of their intellectual resources. Yet the evidence appears to indicate that these costs are relatively small and not very likely to become an issue. And there is quite clearly evidence that many firms that have a significant share of employees who don’t work in a position that encourages and protects intellectual pursuits such as science, technology, engineering, math, and technology are at the very least likely to be able to provide employees with sufficient resources.11. In order to demonstrate that human nature, morality, or any ethical standards should be universally shared, it is important to examine the different types of intellectual assets that individuals have, and the types of intellectual assets that a private individual has to acquire and transfer.12. Some individuals have assets that are not used by others but rather

Values can be defined as a belief, a mission, or a philosophy that is meaningful. Roy Posner once said “Whether we are consciously aware of them or not, every individual has a core set of personal values. Values can range from the common place, such as the belief in hard work and punctuality, to the more psychological, such as self-reliance, concern for others, and harmony of purpose.” (Roy Posner) 3 I believe that Values are instilled in people as they are raised, they are passed to us from our parents and elders and later become the foundation by which we live by.
Identify three sources of professional values and ethicsCode of Ethics – [a set of guidelines designed to set out behaviors for members of a particular group, association or profession. Most organizations govern themselves by a code of ethics or conduct; it sets professional standards by which members must abide by]. (Answers.Com)1
Academic Integrity – [By virtue of membership in a Universitys academic community, student/learners accept a responsibility to abide by the Student Code of Academic Integrity, Academic Integrity covers areas from Plagiarism to inappropriate behavior]. (University of Phoenix Academic Policies & Procedures pg.1)4
Organizational Values – described as [beliefs and ideas about what kinds of goals members of an organization should pursue and ideas about the appropriate kinds or standards of behavior organizational members should use to achieve these goals. From organizational values develop organizational norms, guidelines, or expectations that prescribe appropriate kinds of behavior by employees in particular situations and control the behavior of organizational members toward one another. (Barney, J. B. (1986).2
Professional values and ethics can influence career success no matter the career field; Values and Ethics are very important. Some people have jobs where bosses may often ask them to lie to customers, like in sales, in this case having good
