Ethics

In this reflection, there are two questions (5 points each) posed for you to reflect on:

Take a moment and reflect on what is important to you. There are three categories of values:

Character Values – Character values are the universal values that you need to exist as a good human being. They are also the core characteristics that employers look for when hiring. Examples of character values include: commitment, loyalty, positive attitude, and respect. 

Work Values – Work values are values that help you find what you want in a job and give you job satisfaction. It is especially important to understand what your work values are in order to thrive professionally. Examples of work values are: hands-on, public contact, prestige, and stability. 

Personal Values – Personal values are values that help you define what you want out of life and will assist you in being happy and fulfilled. They are the guiding principles of your life. Examples of personal values are: family life, popularity, health, and appearance. 

What is some of your Character and Personal values? How might these values influence your application of ethics?

What is it like for you to think about being “pushed out of your comfort zone” as you learn about ethics?
