Integrity is doing what is knowing the difference between right and wrong and making the decision to have the courage to do what is right even though others do not agree with you! Integrity is having respect for yourself and others.

Thomas, thank you! I love your photos and your project to create a huge photo library. Thanks for making them available!

BTW, Thomas's full Times Square photo reminded me of this earlier art.

Hey! Thanks! Looks really good. I never thought about cropping out the pedestrians and traffic but it works really well as a header.

How can I get a transcript of the Kim Clark interview by Charlie Rose on his last day in the job (7/29/2005)?

Thanks for picking up the thread from the Leadership.Now. blog.

I can tell you what Blohowiak thinks regarding your question about evaluating your team members for performance *and* values: It's perfectly appropriate to assess for values -- as evidenced by behavior. (How else could you evaluate values -- and why would you even try if they didn't impact behavior?)

Here's the thing: It's tempting to want to know what's in someone's truest heart -- what they believe at a core level. But beliefs and values only matter when they affect what someone does. Actions are the only basis for assessing a person already on your payroll. You can try to divine values when interviewing a new hire, but that is a speculative and tricky business indeed.
