Heard a great message today in supporting of building stronger relationships that is very applicable. Ask yourself: 1. Who is hurting you/who are you hurting? 2. Who is helping you/who are you helping? 3. Who is honoring you/who are you honoring? Can be applied both personally and professionally. Think about it.

Embracing Integrity and Respect: A Foundation for Honor In a world that often clamors for attention, let us reflect on the enduring virtues of integrity and respect. As Geoffrey de Charny wisely said, "True honor is found not in outward appearances, but in a man's heart and actions." It's a timeless reminder that genuine honor emanates from the authenticity within. Respect, a cornerstone of harmonious societies, is beautifully captured in the words, "Treat all people, regardless of their station, with courtesy and respect." This principle transcends time and societal norms, emphasizing the universal importance of recognizing the inherent dignity of every individual. In our pursuit of personal and collective growth, let us champion these values, cultivating a culture where integrity and respect become the pillars upon which we build our interactions. The path to true honor begins with the choices we make and the respect we extend to others. How do you incorporate these values into your daily life? Share your thoughts below. 💬 #leadershipdevelopment #integrity #respect #honor #values #wisdomoftheday #mementomori

Hey Leaders, some quick thoughts about honor. Or as my International friends might write: honour. I like the second spelling because it includes U (or you). Something we may be lacking in our society today. As the Leadership Professor of Practice at The Citadel, I have the privilege of working with the college's three key values of Honor, Duty, and Respect. And as the linked article outlines, Honor is something you give others, duty is the action of honor and respect is the reflection of selfless service and leadership. As a retired military person, I take the idea of honor seriously as I hope you do as well. The citizen trusts those trained in the ability to use force to use it in the right way and for the right reasons. A key canon in this trust is the sense of honor we share as a military profession and our dedication to the Constitution and our oath of office. Our question today is your honor, what it is, how your acts reflect honor and why it might be important. We'll answer these in reverse order. When it comes to the 'why,' of honor, check out my friend Ancella Livers article below -- she writes about why honor is important. And I don't think I could have written anything better -- her outline of what honor represents and how her father was role model of honor is worth noting. And that bring us to 'how.' How are you a person of honor? A person others might use as a role model of honorable behavior. One leader I admire demonstrated honor when he came to our team with a tough problem and was courageous in his vulnerability of being unable to solve the problem alone. He honored us through his trust and listening as we worked together to solve a difficult international issue. And now the what --- what IS honor? There are many definitions and many ideas about what honor is. At West Point they use the adage that 'honor is doing the right thing even when no one is looking.' Taking that one step further, honor might be doing the right thing even when it hurts -- our ego, our bottom line, our perceptions? For more on what honor (or honour) might be, here is an interesting link with more information: https://lnkd.in/gvdD-YCX Think about the bosses you worked with and did not like. They probably displayed dishonorable behavior. Not anything that was what we like to call illegal, immoral, or present a safety hazard, but micro-actions reflecting arrogance, mistrust, misogeny, racism, or even poor listening and actions. Knowing this, you now have a decision to make. Act like the leaders who decry honor or be the best person and leader you can be, acting with honor around others. So help me out. How do you live with honor and what examples have you seen that reflect a sense of honor or an absence of honor. I look forward to your insights and welcome your thoughts.
Dear America When I was a young woman of about 19, I accidently overheard my father on the phone. I don’t know what they were talking about, but I heard my father say, “I am a man of honor.”” His voice was clear and definite. I left the room giggling a little. I mean ,really, , who says “I ‘m ‘’a man of honor? “The phrase sounded as if it had come from a medieval movie. I am older now and I have come to understand the importance of honor. For honor means you strive to be your best self. Honor means you make the best decisions for the many, not just for the few. Honor means that you consider all perspectives not just the few. Honor means we own our mistakes; our flaws and we work to change them. America, my dear America where is our honor now. Can we truly say we are still a country of honor? Is our Supreme Court working from a since of honor? Is our Congress working from a sense of honor? Are we? And if we are not working from a sense of honor, then who are we becoming as a nation? If we have no honor how can others believe in us? Ho d with ought honor, Dear America, we cannot call ourselves the greatest nation on earth. We cannot have honor if we do not have truth. But it is not just about telling the truth. It is also about kindness. It is about trustworthiness. It nor means working for the greater good. But honor is not easily won. An is about listening. My dear America can we truly say that we are behaving as if we were honorable? As an individual, are you honorable in how you conduct yourself? Can we be America if we do not have honor? If we do not have liberty and justice for all? And if we cannot say yes to these questions then whom have we become? LEDIE;S KITCHEN Ideas that stir the pot

Scholastic’s 2023 holiday message made this literature lover’s heart grow 3 sizes! The video reminded me instantly of my AP English teacher’s mantra that “language is power.” This very mantra is what inspired me to become an English teacher. Who knew that nearly 12 years later, that same mantra drives my current exploration of new careers in copywriting, editing, and roles rooted in communication! Much like the concept mentioned in the video, I used to implement a similar lesson within my classroom after the New Year. Students would choose one word that represented their goals and visions for the next 365 days. Not only did this lesson encourage students to make time for self-reflection amidst the stress and chaos of midterms, it also reminded students of a very important message. Our words carry weight— not only the words we speak to others, but also the words we speak towards ourselves. During this time of year and beyond, let’s choose our words wisely. My word for 2024? Clarity. Here’s to a healthy and successful 2024!
Happy holidays from us at Scholastic to all our fellow word collectors!
