1. PROTECTING THE CLIENTS INTERESTS ABOVE OUR OWN (telling the client the truth, especially things he does not want to hear. There is a risk involved in this. We may be fired in the process. We gladly accept the risk. Challenging the client if we feel he is not right)

2.ETHICS (Being very ethical with the clients in terms of: not taking advantage of any situation, observing all confidentiality of the work we do, and upholding the trust the client has placed upon us).
