In this case scenario there is clearly a difference in opinion, while the boss of the company believes he is giving Beauport (his employee) greater opportunities in the company and a chance to succeed in her career by changing her position to marketing research coordinator; Beauport is convinced that she is being sidelined into a “backroom” job, since she is aware of the stereotyping that goes on with women in this industry.

The boss knowing he had this position two years prior to becoming boss is both excited and pleased to inform his employee of his wise decision, and is sure his employee would be thankful for the great opportunity.

External recruitment by means of applications and resumes may increase the chances of hiring an individual who does not perform well at the job. However, when employees contact a company on their own, there is an increased chance that the employee will perform better than an employee who has been recruited by college placement services or newspaper ads (Bohlander & Snell, 2007).
