Ethics

You are a consultant on a project team that has been hired by Techlo $($a Fortune $100$ company$)$ to design and administer an employee survey. The survey contains information about employee job satisfaction, engagement, and issues concerning pay and promotion fairness perceptions. The project is generating over $$450,000$ in consulting fees. The night before your presentation to the client, a Sr$.$ Vice President of Marketing at Techlo calls you and asks you to send her the survey data for the Marketing department so she isn't "surprised by any of the report's findings." You respond by saying that "the information is confidential" to which she says, $"$Of course! I$\text{'}$m not going to share it with anyone else." Which of the following issues should most concern you in considering a response?

Providing high quality service to the client.

Ensuring accurate data analysis.

Protecting the identity of individual survey respondents.

Giving the client feedback about her aggressive behavior.
