Integrity: Because It’s The Right Thing To Do

Carl Gave BloodThe other day, a friend asked me why I love my job so much. I responded, “Because I’m saving lives everyday. Each time I schedule someone to come into their local blood center and donate, I’ve saved someone. In a few weeks, I can save more lives than a doctor, a surgeon, or a firefighter can in a year! Who else gets to do that?” She then asked, “Well that has to be hard. Why would anyone want to donate blood?” The people I schedule everyday have the best answer. So I simply told her what they tell me, “Because it’s the right thing to do.”

“Integrity” can be defined as adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty. I think that integrity is one of Incept’s more important values for a reason that’s best summed up by Alan K. Simpson“If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don’t have integrity, nothing else matters.”

At Incept we surround ourselves with the best people who do the right thing everyday. There’s no room to compromise on the topic of integrity. Your company either has it or it doesn’t. Incept has it, and it’s one reason why our employees love to work here. Knowing that, at the end of the day, your company does the right thing equates to it being secure and stable. And that provides peace of mind for a lot of people. We fight the good fight, and it shows in how good our employees feel about their jobs and the work they’re doing. Working here means you’re part of a family of people who demonstrate “Compassion” in everything they do. We not only talk the talk, but we walk the walk. We have people who do volunteer work, people who head charities, people who are always there to lend a hand. We demonstrate our compassion by doing things like hosting blood drives to support our community. Each time we host these drives, our employees follow through on the words they speak. They roll up their selves and give donations of 100% “Compassion-Packed & Integrity-Positive” blood!

Everything we say, we stand for. Every value we talk about, we live as a part of our daily lives. For me, the values on the wall in our contact center are a lot more than a cool banner to look at. They’re a promise to me, as an employee, that Incept will stick to what it says. I think that’s a value that’s hard to come by in companies these days. For me, that makes Incept special!
