Mike,

Thanks for your response to the article. Two things; I think the previous comments hit the nail on the head. As business Leaders we live by values. And if those values are that corruption is bad, (I think we all agree it is) then we cannot waiver from that conviction. Even to the point of losing a deal. I can think of a deal or two I lost because I wouldn't play.

The second thing is that i find it encouraging to see that this kind of thinking is catching on in the marketplace and that people are talking about values and their role in business and that there is a new consciousness coming to play in business.

Mike thanks for your work,

John
