The Difference Between Ethics and Integrity

On a first, casual glance, ethics and integrity may seem like two sides of the same coin, but they are actually very different.
Ethics is largely external. It’s the official rules, regulations and organisational codes of conduct that have been created with the intention of giving people a moral framework in which to operate.
Integrity, on the other hand, is internal. It’s our personal choice of how we want to behave - personally and professionally.
It’s what sits right with us - in our gut, our conscience, and our heart - and allows us to sleep at night.
It’s what we do when no one is looking.
