Deal with Dirt Decisively

Corruption Is Costly - It benefits a selfish few while poisoning the entire organization.

Resources wrongfully redirected, misplaced focus, corruption trumping competence, all seriously drain and corrode corporate well-being.

Expect rot and wrong doing as an inevitable part of doing business and Deal with Dirt Quickly and Decisively So You Don't Have To Defend It in the Future.

Relief comes from removing the wrongdoing and clearing the corporate conscience. No matter how difficult and enduring the dirt, end it as quickly and decisively as possible. In communications:

• Place Principles Above Personalities
• Focus on WHAT Was Wrong rather than WHO Was Wrong
• Emphasize Evidence that Provides Enduring Examples that can Lead to Future Excellence

Use the Gold Fish Test - Expect the dirt to become public, what do you want the press to say?

Ideally you want them to report what you did, the dirt you identified and dealt with rather than rot you face. Your choice, your career.

Do you want to Defend the Dirt and concoct a continual cover up and crises of conscience and credibility?  

Or ~ Deal with dirt directly and decisively, quickly clearing corruption and the corporate conscience so the organization can move forward positively, productively, enthusiastically. Is there a choice?
