Alex has been Patti's supervisor for the last three years.
They started dating over a year ago and agreed to keep their relationship confidential and quite separate from their professional lives. It's worked well so far because Patti is working as a senior administrative professional in another department quite separate from Alex. However, a great, new executive assistant opportunity has occurred-working directly for Alex! The problem is that Neela, the only other competitor for the new position, has seen Patti and Alex together socially. Not surprisingly, Neela has spread the rumour that Patti is dating the boss and that she, Patti, will obviously have an unfair advantage when interviews begin.
Do you see any potential harm in this scenario?
What should Patti do in this situation?
2.) You work for Dynamic Systems as an executive assistant. The longer you work for this organization, the more often you have to make decisions about whether the behaviour of you and your colleagues is ethical or unethical. What will you do when the following situations occur?
As a part of your professional responsibilities, you make many long-distance calls from the telephone in your office. These calls are not tracked. You would like to use your office telephone to make a personal call long distance to your mother.
Your company policy states that it deducts wages for people who come to work late or leave early. One of your assistant's works very hard, accomplishes a great deal, and is essential to your success at work. Her only method of transportation is the public bus service. To make her transportation convenient, she arrives 15 minutes late every day. It's your responsibility to deduct her salary. You are responsible for hiring a new receptionist. Your friend really needs the job but is not the most qualified person who applied. During a sales meeting with a client, the sales representative presents false information about a company product. This information leads to the signing of a contract during that meeting.
