You are part of a sales team that are ready to sign a big new client to a contract worth over $30,000. Your boss is someone you really like. She employed you, has helped you developed professionally, recognises the excellent work you do and you consider her a friend. She works under an all-male executive team and you think they give her a harder time than other departmental heads because of her gender. At present, she is under a lot of pressure to increase sales. Your boss calls you into her office and tells you that she’s going to lose her job if she doesn’t meet revenue targets. She asks you to include the revenue for your contract in the sales figures for the quarter that ends tomorrow. You know the contract is a sure thing but the client is out of town and cannot possibly sign by tomorrow. What do you do?
