Saudi Electronic University Business Ethics Discussion

Performance EvaluationYou were recently promoted to manager of a department with five profession- als and two clerical staff. One of the professionals, Joe, is a nice guy; but he simply hasn’t been able to match the performance of the others in the depart- ment. When he tells you he has been interviewing for another job in a differ- ent part of your company, you pull his personnel file and see that your predecessor had rated Joe’s performance as ‘‘good to excellent.’’ You frankly disagree. Joe has asked you for a recommendation. Based on the written appraisals, you could give him a good one—but your personal observation is at odds with the written evaluations. Joe’s prospective manager—your peer in another department—asks for your opinion.What do you say?
