How does communication and ethics impact your professional life? How does communication and ethics impact your professional life? When asked this question you must look deep in yourself.

Even how you sent an email to a superior had to be thought out. I knew where I stood on all this but I wanted to do some research on the subject to see what else was out there. When I came across ("How Personal Ethics Affect Professional Ethics in the Workplace," 2013, p. 1) and read it, I found it to be very interesting.

Show them where they are lacking and teach them to do better. Ultimately it’s on you and how you want to be seen. What do you think is right and how dedicated are you to your job? I know that I always want to advance my career but I don’t want to have smut on my past. References How Personal Ethics Affect Professional Ethics in the Workplace. (2013). Retrieved from
