Mini-Case: The Boss’s Daughter
It is another bright and sunny spring morning. As you arrive at the office, your spirits are high, and you are looking forward to another productive day working for ABC Environmental Services. You find it hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since you joined ABC as a human resources business partner. The company was a start-up only three years ago and has now grown to over 100 employees in three locations. Working as an HR generalist in a department of two, you had the opportunity to work closely with your manager, Colleen, on developing and introducing a number of policies and procedures, including a Code of Conduct and Ethics that you have nearly completed writing. Once you get settled in at your desk, you head over to the staff lunchroom as you do every morning to get your morning coffee. As you approach the lunchroom, you overhear two employees having a lively conversation about the summer intern position that you are recruiting for:
“Did you see Kendra yesterday morning? I thought she was here just to visit her dad like she has so many times before. But then she went into the boardroom with Colleen and Kevin, and I realized that she was being interviewed for a job here. I bet it is the summer intern position.”
“Wow. I had no idea. Obviously, she will get the job then—one of the perks of being the CEO’s daughter. I wonder if she even has the qualifications for the job. Well, I suppose that does not matter…”
When you get back to your office, you open the file on the summer student intern position and see that Colleen and Kevin, the VP of Operations, have in fact selected Kendra Johansson as the top candidate for this position. On your to-do list today you see that you are assigned to conduct reference checks, and, if they are satisfactory, to offer Kendra the position.
You notice that Kendra and the CEO have a different last name, and the only evidence you have that there is any relationship between them is the conversation that you overheard. The new Code of Conduct, which you are helping to prepare, talks about conflicts of interest, nepotism, and working with relatives; however, the policy is not yet in effect and no one other than yourself has reviewed it.
You decide to approach Colleen about the information that you overheard. Colleen advises you that Kendra is the CEO’s daughter, but the CEO was not involved in any way in the recruitment process, and she is qualified for the position. She also seems surprised and annoyed that staff would be aware of Kendra’s relationship and gossiping about it in the office.
