It’s not just big corporate America, principles matter everywhere. This includes mom and pop shops, nonprofit organizations and, of course, even one on one interactions.
|
Happily, most practice what they preach. They believe in transparency, seek out local news and do their best to right the wrongs they see—not just in their pet projects, but in every conversation.
