Abstract

An executive director must make a difficult decision about personnel management that may necessitate the disclosure of sensitive employee information. This case pushes readers to determine whether it is appropriate or ethical to share closed HR documents, when on the one hand, to not disclose means protecting an employee’s reputation and career, but on the other hand, to disclose means preventing a perceived breach of organizational integrity and transparency. Handy and Russell also highlight dimensions of executive-board relations and how this relationship impacts ethical decision-making in nonprofits.
