Ethical Conduct Of An Entrepreneur
Every Friday, whenever I have the time, I meet up with people from our community close to where we live. In the 1 hour slot which we all have together, we normally discuss life-related issues and concerns associated with religion and ethics.
In the talk that we had last Friday, the main person in charge, started talking about behaviour and mental issues. We talked about how you, as a human being, should conduct yourself in order to appear sophisticated and to gain respect. The discussion that followed introduced many ideas, and ideas which I thought related to being an entrepreneur in the 21st century as well.
For me, and most important, an entrepreneur must be polite and courteous whenever dealing with other people. When talking to potential clients, a budding young entrepreneur should be welcoming and optimistic with future deals or relationships that could blossom. In this way, they are more likely to receive offers and stand-out from the rest of the crowd of hopeful money-makers.
When approaching employees, an entrepreneur must consider problems and arguments from their side, and must attempt to approach and solve these problems in order to maintain respect from his workers.
Another important aspect of the business life that an entrepreneur will encounter is fairness. Watching TV, there are a few programs which show “The Most Famous Scams….” For me, such acts as scamming and cheating money out of clients and individuals is a disgusting act. I have taken the full brunt of one such scammer who cheated me out of a significant amount of money. By having the name of entrepreneur plastered upon your back, you must under all circumstances be fair and impartial and try to uphold these values.
By continually practising these values, you should hopefully distinguish yourself from the other hopefuls. Who knows, with this you could see improved profits and an increasing empire. Never stoop down low to the acts of other individuals, you are who you are. Make sure that other people know this, and make sure that their impression of you never wanders, as your reputation means everything in the world of business.
