Here a personal benchmark for you, for what it is worth. I spent ten years in legal services investigating all manner of human ethical lapses. I have had face-to-face meetings with murderers, wife beaters, and white collar criminal scumbags. The majority of these people KNEW they had done something wrong, had some kind of moral framework. I wish I could say that of my current cohort of 'coaches', and 'organizational helpers', who are marching to a different drummer, entirely. Let's say I would not want to be in a dark alley with they folks.
