Problem
• David Tovar is the spokesperson for our company• We are considering promoting him to Senior Vice-President. We have to decide whether to promote him or not.• David started at our company 20 years ago• He said he had a university degree when he applied for the job (20 years ago)• We did background check and found out he doesn’t have a degree. • We talked to him and he says he never graduated from university but thought it wasn’t a problem after he got the job.• He never told anyone about this until we asked him as part of this process
Option #1: Fire David
We should tell David that we appreciate everything he has done for our company for 20 years, but we have to fire him to set a precedent and a strong example for other staff.
Option #2: Promote David with a Warning
We can tell David that we will give him a break this one time because of his 20 years of good work. We will give him a formal warning that must go on his file and if there is any evidence of any other unethical behaviour, he will be fired.
Option #3: Give David a Warning but No Promotion
We will tell David that he can remain as the head spokesperson for our company, but he will not be able to get a senior executive position because of his lie when joining the company
