Most Relevant Virtue Which of the six virtues (and their related character strengths) are most relevant in discussing business ethics? After my readings, I decided that in my opinion courage is one of the most relevant of all virtues. Even though I believe that all six are very important and work well together, but the one that stand out to me is courage. I personally think that with courage you are easily able to apply all the virtues in business as well as spiritually. Why I believe this? I think with courage we have the determination to stick with what we believe is right despite of the pressures we may face. This would relate to one of its characteristics, integrity. With integrity individuals adhere to what is right and sticking their ethics values. The problem in today’s society is the different pressures people face and sometimes they don’t have the courage to be able to make sound ethical decisions and their integrity fails them. “Bravery” to me is being exceptionally strong to face any adversity regardless of the consequences. “Persistence” in business ethics is being able to build consistency despite of difficulties or even obstacles, never given up on what we believe to be important. “Integrity”, I think out of the four characteristics that fall under courage this one is the most important, basically is the quality of one’s character and this is very relevant in business ethics, because if you have any doubts of a person or business integrity, it would be really hard to overlook that quality. There would be no trust. And “vitality” being able to grow and have the energy to strive for success regardless of the circumstances. All of these characteristics that fall under courage are so very important in business ethics as well as personal ethics. With courage sky is the limit and you will not be afraid to acquire wisdom and knowledge, humanity
