Hello everyone,
Esteban is not performing in a professional manner in this scene. In fact, he is
showing extreme unprofessional manners and unethical work ethic. Under no
circumstance should he be using a company's tools or assets for his own benefit.
You can also see he is trying not to get caught by any upper management due to
him doing these actions after hours of work.
As a manager, a great change I would do differently to make sure Esteban is not
using the company's assets for their own benefit, would be coachings and sit
down conversations. A sit down conversation can have the employee get an idea
on how bad his actions are towards the company. This disciplinary of a coaching
would be a written down statement from both manager and employee stating that
he or she understands the actions they have done, which could lead to suspension
or possibly termination.
These unethical actions could lead to a great deal of financial loss…
