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.

If you’ve ever been hurt or disrespected by a peer at work, your feelings can be deeply hurt. Out of this hurt, many people seek revenge.  A different approach is how David handled Saul’s attacks. Even though David had been a faithful servant to Saul, Saul became jealous and continually worked to kill David.   David eventually found Saul unprotected. Rather ...

A friend of mine is a Dean of a business school. Recently, he shared with me that one of his more common problems with freshmen students is plagiarism.  When he asks his students to write an essay, it’s become common for some of them to turn in a paper that was produced for them online. What troubles my friend the ...

Non-Solicitation Agreement

Previously, we discussed the Federal Trade Commission’s desire to eliminate most noncompete agreements. There are usually two primary reasons for noncompete agreements: protecting customers and/or protecting trade secrets.  To protect the loss of customers, you might use a non-solicitation agreement instead of a noncompete agreement. Non-solicitation agreements prevent former employees from pursuing your customers after they have left your employment.   ...

George Santos was recently elected as a Congressman. Unfortunately, his resume was not vetted, allowing Mr. Santos the opportunity to easily deceive the voters of New York.  According to The New York Times, Santos claimed to have graduated from Baruch College and New York University and, that he more than doubled revenue as a project manager at Goldman Sachs.  But ...

A Cancelled Football Game

When I learned the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals game had been cancelled due to Damar Hamlin’s injury, I was surprised. When you consider the millions of dollars in salaries, the millions spent by the fans, and the millions of advertising dollars at risk, the financial decision would have been to resume the game.  Fortunately, the coaches and the NFL ...

Visionaries vs Financially Driven: Part II

In this series, we’re discussing different approaches to leading a company through a recession. Some leaders are financially driven who try to limit risk; others are visionaries.  When a recession is imminent, the financially driven will usually eliminate staff. But a visionary is different.   After 9-11, the airline industry was devastated. Almost all major airlines began massive layoffs.   Southwest Airlines ...

According to a Bank of America survey, 77% of fund managers believe a recession is imminent. When recessions are likely, there are typically two types of leaders: visionaries or the financially driven.   The financially driven typically become defensive in their decisions trying to eliminate risk. Visionaries, however, see a coming recession as an opportunity to build customers and market ...

A Stubborn Heart

In 1995, I left banking to begin ministering to business leaders. My priorities shifted. I convinced myself that putting God first meant putting the ministry first.   Eventually, I began using up our retirement funds, putting my family in a financially precarious position. Because I wasn’t listening to my family and others, God allowed me to destabilize my family’s finances.   Fortunately, ...

Something I love about the events we host is the different ways God works. Pennie, one of our sponsors in Des Moines, recently shared how she had prayed and loved on her executive assistant for 15 years.  Last year, however, Pennie invited her assistant to come to an Unconventional Business Network event. At that event Pennie’s assistant received one of ...
