In Newport,
Oregon March 3, 2018 iChange Nations™ launched the first of its kind, the
Global Golden Rule Business Initiative. Honoring local community businesses for
their Golden Rule ethics in business. Recognizing local businesses for their
great business ethics is at the forefront of a movement ICN is initiating to
bring the culture of honor to communities around the world.
iChange
Nations™ believes that honoring, where honor is due, changes the atmosphere of
communities, regions and nations. Newport will become a template to give all
small communities a model of how honor changes a community. Showing that honor
inspires others to accomplish a greater level of integrity and service to their
community. This in turn betters the life of the community and it’s residents.
Among the
business honored in this first Golden Rule Business Honor Event were business
in the construction trades, restaurants, storage, health and vitamins, an Asian
Market, hotel, CPA, Dental Care and more. Showing that all communities have a
plethora of businesses that contribute to the life of a community and that many
work hard and need recognition for their contribution to their communities. ICN
knows that by honoring businesses that are exemplifying Golden Rule Ethics,
they are taking their place in a global responsibility. The local is now global
and does affect the world around us. Dr. Rivers plans on seeing this template
reach the world, propagating the Golden Rule Culture of Honor in businesses
that originated out of Lincoln County. The Local businessmen Mike Dean, John
Robinson, Mike Pitzl and Scot Waggnor we the initiators of
this movement with ICN out of Lincoln County, Oregon.
