Personal Code of Ethics Assignment Instructions
Overview
You will compile a series of statements (usually done
as bullet points) that will assert the attitudes, actions, and behaviors of the
person you genuinely aspire to become. Because of the personal nature of this
assignment, you will not be asked to discuss these with anyone else.
As you prepare to complete this assignment, schedule
several blocks of time to be alone with your own thoughts. Begin by thinking
about your own goals, norms, beliefs, and values. Ask yourself what is really
important in your life and begin to reflect upon these areas. During this time,
jot down notes for review and further reflection. After you have done this
(probably over the course of several days), make a list of statements that you
believe are an accurate representation of your beliefs and values, your
Christian worldview, etc. You may find that the person that you are may be
somewhat different from whom you would really like to be as a Christian
businessperson.
Take this assignment seriously. Work privately and
independently. Do not try to flatter your instructor with words you do not
mean. Avoid trite expressions or egotistical phrases. This work must be an
earnest endeavor that represents the person you are happy with and/or actually
want to be. This assignment is not a confession of your shortcomings, and it is
not to be something so idealistic that you would be embarrassed if someone else
were to read it. It must be realistic and attainable. You must be willing to put
the finished document in a place where you can refer to it frequently so that
you can make the statements an active part of your consciousness. Some day in
the future, of course, you may make modifications; however, do your best to
make it as applicable as possible to your present understanding.
Instructions
Your name and course information must be in the upper
left-hand corner of the submitted document. The title must be “Personal Code of
Ethics.” Limit your work to 1 page (maximum). You must have 5–12 ethical
statements. Type each statement in bold font and begin each statement with the
words, “I will…” Single space within each statement and double space between
statements.
