2013 Edelman Trust Barometer Finds a Crisis in Leadership
Less Than One in Five Trust Leaders to Tell the Truth
Less than one in five respondents in the 2013 Edelman Trust Barometer
believes a business or governmental leader will actually tell the truth when confronted with a difficult issue. This
lack of confidence in traditional authority figures was continually reinforced in 2012 against the
backdrop of high-profile scandals involving CEO and government
officials.

Trust is a commodity in the business Ethics puts the gut feel. Dealing with responsible companies back
trust in your employees and your suppliers.
Aristottle who would thin I would quote him? Virtue ethics emphasizes the role of one's character
and the virtues that one's character embodies for determining or evaluating ethical behavior. Virtue ethics is one of the three major approaches to normative ethics, often contrasted to deontology which emphasizes duty to rules and consequentialism which derives rightness or wrongness from the outcome of the act itself.

Carbon FootprintSuppliers that do not manage CO2 will be deselected from ‘Approved Supplier’ List to competitors who have Carbon management plans.The results indicate that companies are making real changes to their operating models, most frequently in procurement, resulting in greater reductions in greenhouse-gas emissions and greater monetary gains across the entire supply chain.The business case is strong and growing suppliers that do not measure, quantify, and manage their greenhouse-gas emissions will soon see their business move to competitors that can provide better information and clearer evidence of change.
Of the 49 Carbon Disclosure Project Supply Chain member companies—the companies who are requesting climate information from their suppliers—90% of responding companies have a climate change strategy with at least general guidelines for procurement, an increase from 79% in 2010 and 74% in 2009. Some 62% reward suppliers that employ employ good carbon-management practices (up from 19% in 2009 and 28% in 2010), 39% will begin deselecting suppliers that do not adopt such measures (compared to 17% in 2009 and 23% in 2010), and 30% factor climate change into their evaluation of suppliers.
