INTEGRITY
the ability to stand up for your own beliefs about right and wrong and show commitment, courage, and self-discipline in everyday interactions.

RESPONSIBILITY
the ability to think before you act, giving consideration to the possible consequences of your interactions as well as exercising self-control and self-discipline.

LOYALTY
the willingness to stand by and support your team without talking behind people's backs, spreading rumors, or engaging in gossip.

FAIRNESS
the ability to treat all people alike without prejudgment and to make decisions only on appropriate considerations.
