Your ethical principles are the moral boundaries you must identify so you can work toward your core purpose without sacrificing your integrity.&nbsp;These are both crucial for learning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-become-a-good-leader\/\">how to be a good leader<\/a> in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll examine why these components are important and how to identify them based on your unique life experiences.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-core-purpose\"><strong>The Core Purpose<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>George asserts that throughout your career, <strong>your core purpose will help guide you when making decisions and motivate you when you\u2019re experiencing challenges<\/strong>. In other words, it\u2019s something you can refer to and remind yourself of the ultimate goal you\u2019re working toward. Without a core purpose, George warns, you risk ending up in an unfulfilling career because you chased things like a higher salary and fancy possessions instead of following your true passion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>George says that no one can determine your core purpose for you. To identify your unique core purpose, start by <strong>reflecting on your life story and your biggest challenges<\/strong> (what George calls \u201ccrucibles\u201d). George found through his interviews that many of the world\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-makes-a-business-successful\/\">successful business<\/a> leaders were shaped by their life experiences and setbacks, which they channeled into a passion to pursue a meaningful goal. When you reflect on your own core purpose, these experiences could include experiences from your childhood or even recent events that impacted your priorities and vision for yourself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one example of someone using their life story to define their core purpose, George describes how the early experiences of Howard Schultz\u2014the former CEO of Starbucks\u2014helped him identify his vision for his career. When he was a young child, his family struggled financially when his father was injured and lost both his job and health insurance. At this time, his mother was also pregnant, and they had no savings to cover expenses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experiencing the precarity of poverty and seeing his father\u2019s shame over his blue-collar job inspired Schultz\u2019s core purpose\u2014to create his own company where the employees would feel respected, and even part-time employees would have access to company-sponsored health insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ethical Principles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve identified your core purpose, you\u2019ll also need to reflect on what your ethics are as a leader. George says that by doing so, you can <strong>ensure that your team members align with those values<\/strong> as well as your core purpose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important element is <strong>articulating your ethical principles <em>before<\/em> you\u2019re in crisis<\/strong> when they\u2019ll be the hardest to stick to. For example, if you decide early in your career that you\u2019ll never lie to your colleagues to cover up a mistake, it\u2019ll be easier to stick to this choice even when you mess up and lying becomes tempting in the moment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s the key to being a good business leader?
