What then of ethics? Ethics are the standards by which behaviours are evaluated for
their morality - their rightness or wrongness. Imagine a person who has a strong value
of achievement and success. Knowing only that this value is important to them gives
us a general expectation of their behaviour, i.e. we would expect them to be goal
oriented, gaining the skills necessary to get what they want, etc. However, we cannot
know whether they will cheat to get what they want or "do an honest day's work each
day". The latter dimension is a matter of ethics and morality. Take another example, a
person has a high priority value or research/knowledge/insight.www.webcolortech.com
