In his introduction to Winning by the Rules, Ethics and Success in the Insurance Profession<\/em>, the Iconoclast identifies a number of words, each beginning with the letter \u201cI,\u201d that are often associated with ethics: Integrity, (implying Incorruptibility), Information (which requires Intelligence), Initiative, Ingenuity, Imagination, Individualism, and for those involved with insurance claims or coverage, Indemnification.<\/p>\n

While these words might at first seem obvious, when closely examined, one finds that each is unique, requiring effort and study; that is mandatory.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The text explains ethics in many ways. Some, such as Peter Drucker, suggested that there is but one standard applicable to all. Thus, the law is incorruptible and must be ethically followed in every situation. This is absolute ethics, and many adhere to that principle. It is the Ten Commandments, the \u201cThou shalt not\u2026\u201d rules, perhaps akin to Sharia Law in Islamic countries. The rules become inviolate; but \u201claw\u201d is the minimum standard of behavior; ethics is the maximum standard.<\/p>\n
