Integrity is the foundation on which everything else depends. Without it, one may still get to the top; but it's almost certain that one's stay there will be neither successful nor long. More than ever, people want leaders they can trust, who stand for something and who can be relied upon to do the right thing.
The irony of discussing leadership and integrity, given the tumultuous developments in global financial markets, is not lost on me. Every day brings new revelations that these qualities, sadly for everyone, were too often absent in many parts of the financial services industry.
