We can make sure our client correspondences and agreements are professionally written.  We can examplify integrity by doing what we promise when we promised. CEO's take the time to work on their business, to be visionaries. I schedule my W.O.M.B time weekly, "work on my business" to look for ways of constant improvement and to make sure it is well managed. Executives run their businesses from a set of core values, they define their culture.
