The Anatomy of Ethical Slips in Government
- Marianne Jennings
"They"
seem like such little things.  A few stats in a report that make the agency look just a tad better.  Forming a company for your post-government/post-retirement business ventures.  An extra conference in Hawaii.  "They" are those initial slips, where the bright ethical line gets a few smudges.  Once the line moves a bit, its location gets more flexible.  And if someone should raise a warning flag, we become defensive.  The warning flag may even find us trying to backtrack, reconstruct, add documentation.  No one wakes up one day and decides to accept a bribe.  No one wakes up one day and concludes that taking $700,000 from an agency is a good career move.  Understanding the anatomy of ethical slips is important for introspection and self-correction: how they happen, how we can help ourselves, others and agencies to find and end them, and why we have so much resistance to just doing the right thing.
