IntroductionImagine an organization where law and order do not exist, where the environment is that of an anything-goes mentality. Workers are free to do as they please without fear of retaliation or repercussions, and chaos reigns supreme. Interaction between colleagues is non-existent and professionalism does not exist. A code of ethics is what guides the behavior of an organization and guides the quality by which the organization will live. When I served in the Army for 21 years, I lived by a set of values ​​that guided me every day, and these values ​​laid the foundation not only for me but for all Soldiers. The values ​​of loyalty, duty, self-respect, honor, integrity and personal courage are what drive the professionalism of our fighting force and enable all of us to interact with each other by guiding the behavior of our interaction with each other. As such when we interact in a personal or business setting, I want a Code of Ethics that aligns with what I have experienced during my 21 year military career. My Codes of Ethics As I researched various examples of codes of ethics, I created several that would be of profound use to me in the personal and business world, particularly in the IT profession. The codes I would like to incorporate for everyday use would be: • Everyone must be treated with the right dignity and deserved respect: equal opportunities for all will be the highest priority when dealing with people. Appropriate dignity and respect shall be afforded and there shall be an environment that promotes non-discrimination. There will be no discrimination based on factors such as race, age, gender, sexual orientation or anything else. Coverage…middle of the paper…crafted and maintained will establish a professional tone where all expectations are met. structured for everyone to follow and are clearly understood.
