The Anatomy of Ethical Slips in Government
- Marianne Jennings
"They"
seem like such little things. A few
stats in a report that make the agency look just a tad better.
Forming a company for your post-government/post-retirement
business ventures. An extra conference in Hawaii.
"They" are those initial slips, where the bright ethical line
gets a few smudges. Once the line moves a bit, its
location gets more flexible. And if someone should raise a
warning flag, we become defensive. The warning flag may
even find us trying to backtrack, reconstruct, add
documentation. No one wakes up one day and decides to
accept a bribe. No one wakes up one day and concludes that
taking $700,000 from an agency is a good career move.
Understanding the anatomy of ethical slips is important for
introspection and self-correction: how they happen, how we can
help ourselves, others and agencies to find and end them, and
why we have so much resistance to just doing the right thing.
