Observation
Developing a culture of integrity is very interesting towards understanding the development of organizations facing ethical scandals. As such, the progressive changes within an organization reflect its capability to respond to its ability to respond to strategic difficulties that are rarely recognized (Jacocks & Bowman, 2006). Therefore, there is an emphasis on the role that external observers play in the realization of organizational stress and perils. Besides, it is also crucial to consider the role of the public safety professions when dealing with enhancing public trust and alleviating public trust. As a result, while assessing the problem of character development and integrity, the leadership should be able to prevent false expectations that escalate the negative picture of the organization.
Interpretation
According to Caldero and Crank (2011), police and other correctional officers should focus on developing programs that create a forum for top personnel and management to have discussions that discuss ethical challenges. However, when doing so, they face various challenges that are detrimental not only to their health but also to their families at large leading to post-traumatic stress disorder.
Application
Over the decades, there have been attempts to look for ways in which character development and integrity can be enhanced. As such, there are various strategies that one may apply at work or even in other places to improve the integrity of a person so that that person can earn public trust from those around him or her. For example, one may apply background checks under which such motivation to workers like job promotion may be based on the level of personal integrity within the organization (Caldero & Crank, 2011). . Consequently, people recruits or staff personnel would work towards improving their levels of integrity in search of such promotions.
