Principles in Practice

How our personal set of principles guides our decisions in life can have a huge impact on our business and career successes. For this assignment you will explore your sense of personal principles by reflecting on an experience in which you employed your own principles and not necessarily those of management.

Provide a real-life example of a time that you did not act according to strict policy, but rather allowed your own set of principles to guide you in making a decision. What factors influenced your decision-making process and how did you develop your set of guiding principles? Discuss how you did or can apply this lesson to your own future performance in leadership.
