Why Character CountsStephen R. Covey1)Some time ago I was asked to consult for a bank that was having a problem withemployee morale. "I don't know what's wrong," complained their young president sadly. Bright and attractively capable, he'd risen through the ranks only to see his institution faltering. Productivity and profits were down. He blamed his employees."No matter what incentives I provide," he said, "they won't shakeoff this gloom and doom."2)He was right. The atmosphere seemed poisonedwith suspicion and lack of trust. Fortwo months I ran workshops, but nothing helped. I was stumped.3)Finally, in more casualconversations, the truth emerged. The boss, who was married,was having an affair with an employee. And everyone knew it.4)It wasobvious now that the company's poor performance was caused by his conduct.But the greatest damage this man was doing was to himself. He was thinking only of his own pleasure and satisfaction disregarding long-term consequences. Moreover, he had violated a sacredtrust with his wife.5)In a word, his failing was one of character.What Really Matters6)Character is made up of those principles and values that give your life direction,meaning and depth. These constitute your inner sense of what's right and wrong based not on laws or rules of conduct but on who you are.7)They include such traits as integrity, honesty, courage, fairness and generosity whicharise from the hard choices we have to make in life. So, wrong is simply in doing wrong, not in getting caught.8)Yet some people wonder if our inner values matter anymore. After all, hasn'tour noted bank executive succeeded in every visible way, despite his moral failing? 9)This question demonstrates a dilemma of our modern life. Many have come to believethat the only things we need for success aretalent, energy and personality. But history has taught us that who we are is more important than who we appear to be.10)During the nation's first century and a half, almost everything in the literature ofsuccess and self-help focused on what could be called thecharacter ethic. Such eminent figures as Benjamin Franklin and ThomasJefferson made clear their belief that we can only experience true success andhappiness by making character the guideline of our lives.11)After we moved into the industrial age and after World War I, the basic view ofsuccess shifted to what we could call the personality ethic. Success became morea function of charm, skills and techniques that lubricate the process ofhuman interaction. Rather than struggle with difficult issues of right and wrong, we turned to making things run smoothly.12)Some of that philosophy expressed itself with harmless but superficial mottoes, suchas "smiling wins more friends than frowning." Other ideas wereeven deceptive, faking interest in others' hobbies so they will like you, for instance. 13)With a value system based solely on skill and personality, we find heroes inathletes, musicians and in powerful business executives. But despitethe admiration we feel for these achievers, we shouldn't necessarily look upon them as role models. While skill is certainly needed for success, it cannever guarantee happiness and fulfillment. These come from developing character.Start at Home14)You can begin to build character at any age. The key is learning how to look within to work inside out.15)With the inside-out approach, private victories precede public victories. These privatevictories are simply promises you make to yourself and others and then keep.16)Day by day, as you make and keep increasingly challenging promises, you will bemaking deposits in your "character account." What begins as great effort willeventually become a habit. And as you get into the habit of building character in the smaller areas of your life, your ability to develop character strength in more important spheres will grow.17)Private victories therefore lead to your larger public victories. For instance, to gainmore freedom to think and act in your job, you must first be amore responsibleemployee. To create a happy marriage, first be the kind of person who generates love, generosity, dependability and trust.18)There's no more essential ingredient for character growth than trust. Whether it is trustwe earn from colleagues or a spouse, it is built slowlyover time inan infinite variety of circumstances.19)Another way to build character is to admit your mistakes. Character is revealed inhow we handle things that go wrong.20)The best opportunities to build character, however, are within our families, where weare constantly tested and most vulnerable to lapses. True character begins at home. 21)Often we sense that we can get away with things around those who know us best, whowill love us regardless of our conduct. This can end up destroying our character and our relationships. How often have we heard of someone who is an excellent employee but treats his or her spouse like a piece of furniture?22)All our relationships follow the patterns of life; they have ups and downs. This is whyour families provide a critical measure of our character and the opportunity, again and again, to nurture it.23)What became of the bank president who was involved sexually with anemployee? When I confided to him what I knew of his affair and the effect it was having on his staff, he ran his fingers through his hair. "I don't know where to begin,"he said.24)"Is it over?"25)He looked me directly in the eye. "Yes. Absolutely."26)"Then begin by talking with your wife," I answered.27)He told his wife, who forgave him. Then he called a meeting of his staff andaddressed their morale problem. "I have found the cause of the problem," he said. "It is me. I am asking you to give me another chance."28)It took time, but eventually the employees' morale, a sense of openness, optimism andtrust improved. In the end, however, the executive was doing himself the greatest favor. He was finding his own path to character.。
