just a bit of ethics.

Ethics can be divided into different components.

• Honesty
• integrity
• transparency
• accountability
• Confidentiality
• Objective
• Respectful
• Lawful

In terms of dancing as a profession all of these apply, and should be thought about when conducting ones self in rehearsal to on stage.  These areas should be thought about when working in performing arts, in any job out of the industry, in everyday life, and indeed, when conducting any research as i will be doing very shortly!

[edit]

Questions developed.

Just expanding o my previous questions, a bit more detail and reasons behind asking them...

5a Ethics...

Ethics?

Ethics isn't a word or idea that i have worked with or thought about before.  To begin with i would say it is to do with a persons moral code of right and wrong.

To be un-ethical would be to be a cheat, to benefit or profit out of wrong doing.  To be un-ethical would be to leave somebody exposed, out of pocket or hurt, without due reason.

Ethical behaviour, to give an example, would be to give your seat up for an elderly person on the bus.  When a friend or neighbour gives you a favour, that that favour would be returned.  To turn up at work on time and to fulfil your contract.

In the workplace, be that an office, in retail, in a studio or on stage the ethics that may apply still revolve around being a "good" person, but can be more defined.  Ethics that may apply to a work place would include:

Turning up on time
Working hard/fulfilling the contract
Having the right attire
Being approachable and friendly
Being open to feedback and improvements

These are just some preliminary thoughts, I'm sure many more will come after i have posted these!
