truth or die!

So I bring you the enclosed article on the importance of truth-telling, entitled, "Truth or Consequences: The Organizational Importance of Honesty," by Erline Belton from the summer issue of the Nonprofit Quarterly.

http://www.nonprofitquarterly.org/section/524.html.

The article is drawn from the author's practical experienceworking with
many organizations on this topic.
And lest you think that you don't need to think about theeffects of dishonesty in your organization, I would remind youof the study a few years ago that showed that 93% of all peoplesurveys admitted to lying "regularly" at work.
Lying hides problems and creates distrust. It is also infectious and the large majority of us do it.
So I pass along this very useful and practical article to you.It's a quick but profound read that will make you say "Hmmmm!"

Your friend,

Ruth
