What Integrity Actually Means
Your team won a quiz, but afterwards you realised the scorer made a mistake adding up — the other team should actually have won by one point. Nobody else noticed. Your team is celebrating, the prize is yours, and pointing out the error means handing the win to the other team and disappointing your own teammates, who did nothing wrong. No one would ever know if you stayed quiet. The mistake wasn't yours, you didn't cheat, and your team is genuinely happy. Speaking up would cost you the prize and make you the person who "ruined" the win. But you know the real score. The trophy on the table says you won. The truth says you didn't. And only you are holding both.
Would you rather win because of a scoring mistake in your favour, or lose but know the score was right? Why?
