Throughout my career working with factories and suppliers worldwide, I have experienced first-hand the risks of corruption and bribery often disguised as "commissions". And throughout this time I have come to realize the power of transparency, accountability, and honesty as essential tools to combat these unethical practices.
Transparency ensures that actions and decisions are open to scrutiny, creating an environment where dishonesty struggles to thrive. Accountability and honesty stem from the deep-rooted values of a company and its members. Notable experts like economist Robert Klitgaard, political scientist Alina Mungiu-Pippidi, and journalist Sheryl WuDunn have emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability in combating corruption and promoting ethical conduct.
Throughout my journey, I have learned that honesty serves as the foundation for a culture valuing integrity and fairness. It is a philosophy I pass onto our team as it creates a business landscape where corruption and bribery are not only discouraged but seen as unacceptable.
