Integrity

Integrity is a complex concept that can be understood in terms of four dimensions: (1) process, (2) judgment, (3) development, and (4) system capacities. Integrity is both a personal and a collective capacity to (1) coherently process moral awareness, deliberation, character, and conduct; (2) regularly render balanced and inclusive judgments regarding moral results, rules, character, and context; (3) routinely demonstrate mature moral reasoning and relationship development; and (4) design and/or sustain morally supportive intra-organizational and extra-organizational systems. These four dimensions both enable and reflect (a) moral coherence, (b) moral soundness, (c) moral maturity, and (d) moral context, respectively.
