Career Mission's Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes, discussed the importance of associating with people with good ethics. It is of prime importance to be aware of and understand the company you keep. Harrison believes that the company you keep invariably determines your future prospects and developments.
In your everyday lives, you come into contact with a variety of people. It is often difficult to know how each person is, until you actually deal with them. Harrison states that the dishonest people almost always associate themselves with other dishonest people and they never really change their ways. Also, once they have been dishonest with you, it is inevitable that they are going to be dishonest with you again and yet again.
Harrison goes on to advise that you need to be careful about the people you deal with and must not in any way allow them to taint you. You need to stay away and distance yourself from questionable and unethical people and organizations. The company you keep will carve out for you in a big way your job search and future prospects.
