The following recommendation was made by the Human Resources Manager to the board of directors of the Fancy Toy Company. “In the last three quarters of this year， under the leadership of our president， Pat Salvo， our profits have fallen considerably. Thus， we should ask for her resignation in return for a generous severance package. In Pat”s place， we should appoint Rosa Winnings. Rosa is currently president of Starlight Jewelry， a company whose profits have increased dramatically over the past several years. Although we will have to pay Rosa twice the salary that Pat has been receiving， it will be well worth it because we can soon expect our profits to increase considerably.”
