Friends, Integrity is non-negotiable, once violated it is perhaps the hardest element in life to restore as trust is lost. I am yet to see the first man or woman that I have defrauded, conspired to deal with take advantage of or do a manifest display of dishonesty.

I led a team of experts to a multi billion Naira Real Estate Company that is working with our system to set up our LEAD EDGE UNIVERSITY Army Value of integrity.


After a whole lot of long discussions and deliberations,the two organisations as an army kept a strong commitment on BUSINESS INTEGRITY AND ETHICS.


Thinking about it today,I discovered that the military life of any nation depends on values,ethics and integrity.


According to REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. -- The Army’s mission success is based on its trust and confidence in the ability of each Soldier to follow the rules.


While the Army’s external system of rules and laws is known as ethics, it’s the Army Value of integrity that ensures an employee’s actions and behaviors are right, both legally and morally.


The leaders I’ve seen who are most effective understand and live the Army Values, understand the ethical rule set and then they make decisions and provide the right guidance and treat people the right way based on their integrity.


It’s about absorbing the value of integrity and living it every day,” said Maj. Gen. Bob Harter, AMC’s chief of staff.


While Army Values like respect, loyalty and personal courage can carry various definitions based on an employee’s culture, background or experience, integrity only has one meaning – truth.This is the key that unlocks the door to a great life on earth.


Integrity means, I must be true and honest to myself, my words, actions my family,my God ,My spouse ,my boss, my supervisor and co-workers and anyone who places trust in me.


Friends, Integrity is non-negotiable, once violated it is perhaps the hardest element in life to restore as trust is lost. I am yet to see the first man or woman that I have defrauded, conspired to deal with take advantage of or do a manifest display of dishonesty.


This rule is a must for your family,business, marriage, Religious, system, ministry integrity violations at that leader level can tear down an organization and can create a cancerous environment that can quickly spread death and creating uncertainty and ultimately happenings .


Integrity fall is the highest fall.

For me,I have made up my mind to stay on the path of integrity for life..


As an organisation development expert and trainer ,I have said it severally that the ethical climate of every organization is set from the top. It is the single most important thing for any individual or system that must make progress.


This is so important to me, as I insist that the only way for leaders to effectively emphasize the Army Value of integrity is to visibly and consistently display it.


My stand has always been, DO THE INTEGRITY, Mere words are not enough,if you desire to lead well.
