An Inappropriate Email
Roger Miller, the director of human resources for Virtual Reality Media, was returning to his office after a half-day training session on how to retain and engage today’s top talent when he received a disturbing phone call. Randy, the manager of the multimedia lab, called to let Roger know about an email he had just been copied on.
One of Randy’s salespeople, John, had sent all of his fellow staff within the multimedia lab department a very derogatory email about Randy; the email said that Randy was a useless supervisor who should not be in a management position because he does not know what he is doing and should be fired.
Randy is very upset and wants Roger to terminate John. This is where you come in to help Roger.
