Introduction: Your moral compass isn't just about being a "good person"—it's your secret weapon for professional success! Every workplace presents ethical choices, from handling confidential information to deciding whether to speak up about problems. Professionals with strong moral compasses earn trust, advance faster, and sleep better at night.

Your moral compass is built from your principles about right and wrong, honesty, fairness, trust, work ethics, and interpersonal relationships. These beliefs guide your decisions when no one is watching and when the pressure is on.

Here's what makes a strong moral compass valuable at work:

  • Builds Trust: People know they can count on you

  • Opens Doors: Companies seek employees who demonstrate integrity

  • Protects Reputation: Your excellent reputation becomes a priceless asset

  • Guides Decisions: You make choices with confidence, even under pressure

This Fleischer Scholars Skillbuilder helps you identify your core values and practice using them to navigate real workplace dilemmas with confidence.

Your Task: Build and test your moral compass.

You're in an internship and discover your supervisor is padding expense reports with fake receipts. When you look surprised, they hint that you should "look the other way" to fit in with the team and not cause problems. What do you do?

Use the process in this graphic to complete ONE of these tasks:

  1. Compass Map: Create a visual showing your top 3 values and how they led to your decision

  2. Decision Tree: Draw out your decision-making process with branches showing different choices and consequences

Submit Your Response: Submit your compass map or decision tree to show how your values guided your workplace decision.
