Integrity Moments

Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional from CEO, Rick Boxx, that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

Here’s what business leaders are saying about UBN’s Integrity Moments:

I just finished your 4-day devotional on Rebuilding Your Reputation and want to offer my sincere appreciation and gratitude for you writing it. I really needed it right now.

I love UBN’s Integrity Moments. I often share them with my team when it’s relevant to them, and I have invited others to subscribe. It’s a quick read, and it’s great how you pull out the biblical applications.

I read your Integrity Moments every day. Your design is really engaging for me. Three sentences, a verse, and a wrap up take-away. The last two Integrity Moments have been particularly meaningful and timely.

Pursue Character and Giftedness

Recently, I was teaching a men’s group on the value of using their areas of giftedness. One person shared with me that he and his son had just discussed giftedness the day before. They came to a profound conclusion: Giftedness, without strong character, can have a very bad ending. Bernie Madoff, who died in prison last year, was a great ...

Rewarding Truthtellers

One of the challenges facing many business leaders who have a large staff is actually hearing the truth. So many people believe that they need to share only what their boss wants to hear that they rarely share what their boss needs to hear. For several years I worked for a boss who punished people who delivered hard truth. His ...

Customer Friendly and Efficient

2022-03-21T12:29:05-05:00February 24th, 2022|Tags: , , |

Kathy and I have frequented a car repair business over the years that has been extremely customer friendly. Recently, however, this business felt different. For efficiency, they began routing our calls to a call center and instituted other new procedures. Also, some of our past contacts are now gone, leaving us feeling disconnected. We later learned that this business is ...

Changing Loyalties

2022-03-21T11:40:44-05:00February 23rd, 2022|Tags: , , |

As I’ve reviewed dozens of job applications lately, it’s not uncommon to see applicants with five jobs in just a three-to-five-year period. Brevity of time on a job reflects in part our cultural changes to loyalty. There was a time when loyalty was valued by both the employer and the employee. My father was loyal to General Motors for his ...

Abusive Customers

There’s an adage that “the customer is always right.” Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Sometimes customers are just mean and unreasonable. This year we have seen an unprecedented number of assaults on airlines as tensions seem to skyrocket. Many flight attendants have been cursed and even assaulted for trying to do their jobs, especially their legal requirement to enforce ...

George Washington’s Reputation

George Washington left his American legacy with a great reputation. Even though the famous story of George Washington chopping down a cherry tree and not lying about it, may not be true, this story speaks to people’s belief about his character. George Washington once said, “Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is ...

Grateful at Work

My friend, Jim, recently shared with me a new idea they have implemented in his company to encourage generosity. Jim uses a new app called Grateful for Giving. Jim’s company purchases gift cards to give to his employees or customers that entitle them to give to any charity of their choice. These cards direct the recipient to the app to ...

Strengths and Weaknesses

2022-03-19T18:17:38-05:00February 17th, 2022|Tags: , , |

Our personal strengths, when overused, can also become weaknesses. Taking anything to the extremes can end poorly. Over the years, I’ve been told at times that listening and observing is a strength of mine. This strength can have the benefit of others feeling heard. But I also know that when I only listen, and not engage, others find it difficult ...

The Source of Strife

My son lives in a residential home with five young men who all have some form of special needs. The young men get along great most of the time, but occasionally, the parents are a different story. For a while there was a parent who constantly complained and gossiped about the staff or other parents. It made for an unhealthy ...

Altruists in the Workplace

Altruism is when we act to promote someone else's welfare even at a risk or cost to ourselves. According to research conducted by the University of Wisconsin – Madison in 2013, altruism in the workplace has many benefits. A Fast Company article highlighted some benefits of altruism. Altruists are more likely to help fellow employees, be more committed to their work, ...
