Trade Secret
Trade secret meaning you can say that one country wants to buy product from you. So,
you give product to them but you show as a good, ethical person and don’t share
the formula for making that product, so this is trade secret. For example, recipe of
Coca Cola, WD-40 formula etc.
Trade secret is very important for any industry/country value. Otherwise everyone will
start making that product and hence you will fall down.
Loyalty
Loyalty meaning is patriotism. Patriotism with the3 place where you work is very
important and in code of ethics. A loyal person always works hard. He follows
that: “Give your best and forget the rest”. A loyal person always works for the
betterment for the place as he/she can which is very good.
Remember that there is a difference between loyalty and integrity. In integrity you
have certain values, rules and principals which you follow and you are honest. So,
I prefer integrity.
