The Four-Way Test, one of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics.
 
Herbert J. Taylor.
Rotary International President
1953-1954
 
In 1932, Taylor's first job was to set policies for a near bankrupts company that would reflect the high ethical and moral standards God would want in any business. What was needed was a simple, easily remembered guide to proper conduct -- an ethical yardstick -- which all in the company could memorize and apply to what
We Think, Say and Do.
In 1943 Rotary International adopted the what we now call the Four-Way Test.
