Impact means making a difference. Competence means skill, knowledge, experience, and other qualifications. Meaningfulness means harmony with one's own beliefs, ideals, and standards. By definition, conformance to any organizational imperatives and structures that conflict with one's own values leads toward meaninglessness. While we live in an imperfect world, we need not be doomed to failure to learn to strive toward lesser degrees of imperfection.
Integrity is willingness to communicate truth, regardless of the consequences for the individual.
Polls have demonstrated that both government as well as corporations are commonly viewed as being untrustworthy. Despite increasing efforts to promote more ethical behaviors, the problem persists and worsens - suggesting that we ought to try something different.

It is virtually unfathomable that organizational leaders are too blind or ignorant to see the need, implying that other factors may play significant roles. Research has shown that organizational cohesiveness neither increases nor decreases group productivity.
