PRSA ETHICS VS ETHICS DISCUSSED IN CLASS

I think that the ethics we discussed in class have similarities to the PRSA ethics. The obvious ones that I found were that the humaneness was most like the PRSA's advocacy. Humaneness is like having the public's interest at heart and genuinely caring about the people you are working for or with. I think this is a good core value; one that should naturally to most people but also one that sort of sums up the golden rule about caring for people and wishing good things upon people. Many people these days only care for themselves, and everyone looks at things like "that's your problem" type thing. I also thought that the stewardship core value and the expertise core PRSA value were similar because they are saying "this is our brand, this is what we stand for," and of course when you stand out there and say that you want people to think that you are good at what you do and that you know what you are talking about. Of course the truth core value and honesty core value are similar. They mean the same thing. If you tell the truth, you are honest. I think that the most "trouble" happens when people or businesses simply do not tell the truth. People will forgive you if you are honest about making a mistake. But when you lye, people automatically think of you differently. Your reputation is tarnished. I think that the lest couple of core values are different between the two (the one we discussed in class, and the ones listed on PRSA). The difference is that the PRSA one lists loyalty. which I think is different than justice or freedom. Loyalty is means you are committed to never making someone or something look bad, you always stand behind it, etc. In the PRSA case, they are faithful to those they represent, as they should be. To me, freedom is the right to chose, the right to be different, your right to do anything. Justice is what happens when you didn't get the freedom you were owed, and now you need to action to be taken. I think that all three core values are important, but I think that it matters with the situation as to what are the needs of that organization.
