Ensuring competence in professional ethics:
Having understood the profession in right perspective, let us clearly
demarcate what we mean by developing ethical competence or the value
competence of an individual which is the only effective way to ensure
professional ethics.
If a person views happiness in terms of maximization of sensory
enjoyment and prosperity in terms of accumulation of physical facilities, then
the motivation naturally becomes that of wealth maximization. In this pursuit,
all other considerations become secondary.
As profession is only a subset of the life activities, the competence
in profession will only be the manifestation of one’s right understanding.
