So, here the term is Integrity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">It would thus be important to know what this term actually means.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">So, <strong>what is actually Integrity<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">The word integrity\u00a0evolved from the Latin adjective integer, meaning whole or complete. It is defined as &#8216;an undivided or unbroken completeness&#8217;, or &#8216;a state of being complete or whole&#8217;. Thus, integrity for a Civil Servant (CS) as a governing ethic means a self-regulatory mechanism where the personal value system of the CS provides him with that wholeness (akhandata) of rhythm between his internal-call of duty and his administrative mandate to function.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Though, in the present context it is like circling a square and very difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>Most often CS finds his own value system in conflict with the professional values i.e. mandate at his disposal<\/strong>. Increasing polarization in society, increased awareness of questionable quality (fake news), increasing expectation from the State and many a times the stakeholders involved with each having their demand which is self-limiting vis-\u00e0-vis the demands made by other stakeholders one finds very difficult to attain that rhythm between personal values and professional conduct as per ethical demands of the organization. But, even in such situation one can see the broader horizon, the broader picture and the convergence between those mutually contending demands of different stakeholders and this in itself requires an open to learn value system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Jain\u2019s philosophy of Syatvada and Anekantvada could be used here as the lynchpin here.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">There can be personal integrity, societal integrity, institutional integrity etc and each one of them basically means the same thing if one draws a broader horizon to look at things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Like Institutional Integrity would mean that the institution is wholesome with unbroken completeness and its actions portray what its objectives are. <strong>Eg:<\/strong> In India Tata business house is looked at with respect as it has always maintained its institutional integrity whether that be towards its customers, stakeholders, government or employees. There is some underlying unison of messaging \u2013 implicit or explicit \u2013 by the Tatas as far as what they stand for, their actions and other corporate issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">JRD Tata considered even tax-management as tax theft but only with a good name.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">A strategy based on integrity holds organizations to a more robust standard. Integrity is more than mere compliance and following the \u2018rule-based\u2019 parameter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">While compliance is rooted in avoiding legal sanctions, organizational integrity is based on the concept of self-governance in accordance with a set of guiding principles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993366;\">Why integrity is never easy?\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">All of us know cheating is a bad thing. This is one lesson that the students start learning from a young impressionable age and the principle continues to hold in one form or other, throughout our lives. Yet, a case study on the subject suggests that as many as\u00a095% of such students admit to having engaged in some form of cheating. In hindsight, the students justify the choice as \u201cnot really cheating,\u201d \u201cno big deal,\u201d or something that \u201ceveryone else does.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">When you\u2019ll browse through the mission, vision, or value statements that corporations post on their websites, you\u2019ll notice that almost every company includes a statement about integrity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Integrity, it is said, should be the basic building block\u00a0for doing business. Nobody wants to get involved with a company that lies, cheats, and\u00a0misleads its customers;\u00a0nor do people want to work for\u00a0a company (or an administrator) that is dishonest, corrupt and unethical.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Yet it\u2019s not that simple, for two reasons:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">First is the innate human ability to rationalize behavior.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">And that leads to the second reason why integrity is so difficult:Everyone defines integrity differently.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><strong>The power of rationalization and the difficulties of definition reveal integrity as a subject that is neither easy nor simple.<\/strong> That\u2019s why solely relying on compliance, functions, policies, rules, and audits \u2014 the integrity police \u2014 is usually inadequate. These mechanisms guard against gross and clearly illegal violations of integrity standards, but they do not deal with the integrity choices that we face every day. These choices require personal judgment. Personal Integrity \u2013 the core of all integrities \u2013 requires an autonomous morality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">One can also say that integrity is the internal mechanism of character and is never about mere externalities. Like other qualities eg: honesty, objectivity which are externalities depend upon the principle of individual\u2019s integrity to \u2018nourish\u2019 and come out as steel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23041\" src=\"https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/fd-150x106.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/fd-150x106.jpg 150w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/fd-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/fd-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/triumphias.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/fd.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_Blogs_%E2%80%A6\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Related Blogs &#8230;<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;
