The notion of integrity, one of the central concepts in business ethics, has been perceived as a virtue of character and recognized as an essential quality that manager and leader should hold. Every time corporate scandals and corporate unethical behavior come into the open, we repeatedly hear the word. However, despite the common sense that integrity is important, there is no common definition or understanding because of its ambiguity. In this paper, as a first step of understanding of integrity, I will roughly describe the outline of integrity. In that work, I will classify the previous studies on integrity into broad sense and narrow sense and then try to give integrated interpretation of integrity.
