Question Answered step-by-step An employer who is considering hiring Kennedy has asked Ali,… An employer who is considering hiring Kennedy has asked Ali, Kennedy’s former supervisor, for a report on Kennedy. In truth, Kennedy’s work for Ali has been only average. However, Kennedy is Ali’s friend, and Ali knows that Kennedy probably will not get the job if Ali says anything negative about Kennedy, and knows that Kennedy desperately needs the job. Further, Ali knows that if the situation were reversed, Ali would not want Kennedy to mention Ali’s deficiencies. Nevertheless, it has been Ali’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when asked for references by employers, and Ali knows that some of Kennedy’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. Finally, this employer has leveled with Ali in the past when Ali has asked for a report on people who have worked for them. Should Ali reveal deficiencies in Kennedy’s past performance?
