People may doubt what you say,
but they will always believe what you do.
~Lewis Cass.
Integrity is revealed when your actions match your words.
Action speaks louder than words, but when action matches words there is no room for doubt. If you are a leader, your team will trust and follow you when your actions and words are congruent.
Will there be times that your actions may not match your words? YES. But, in that moment - a defining moment - you have the choice of a higher form of integrity. Admit it, apologize, and realign your actions and words.
William Wallace is one of my favorite depictions of a leader who matches his actions and words.
