^{Managerial Decision Exercise: You work for a real estate broker who recently hired two g@y realtors, Steven and Shauna, to be a part of the team. During a staff meeting, your boss mentions an article she read about g-ay clients feeling ostracized in the real estate market. She tells the new employees she hired them to help facilitate the home-buying process for g-ay buyers and sellers. She specifically instructs them to focus on recruiting g-ay clients, even telling them that they should pass along any straight customers to one of the straight realtors on the team. A few weeks later, Shauna reports that she has made her first sale to a straight couple that is expecting a baby. During the next staff meeting, your boss congratulates Shauna on her sale, but again reiterates that Shauna and Steven should pass along straight clients to another realtor so they can focus on recruiting g-ay clients. After the meeting, Shauna tells you that she thinks it is unfair that she should have to focus on g-ay clients and that she is thinking of filing a discrimination complaint with HR.}

^{1. Do you think that Shauna is correct in her assessment of the situation?}

^{2. Is there merit to your boss's desire to have the g-ay realtors focus on recruiting g-ay clients?}

^{3.What might be a better solution to help g-ay clients feel more comfortable in the home-buying and selling process?}
