For this first assignment, examine your personal value system in relation to the professional values described in the assigned readings. Together, these influence your worldview and approach to ethical decision-making. In a reflective paper of 1,000-1,200 words, answer the following questions:
How do you personally define values and morals?
What events, experiences, and teachings have influenced the development of your values and morals?
How do your personal beliefs regarding moral and ethical behavior influence your worldview (perspective) and behavior?

Include at least three scholarly, peer-reviewed references from the GCU Library to support your positions.
