Question

Direction: Read the following scenario and answer the questions that follow.
Vipul is working with the operations department at Awsum Ventures. He reports to Suresh, who heads the operations department. Seven months ago Suresh got married to Reena, who is Vipul's counterpart. After the marriage, Vipul realised that Suresh used to ask him to finish all the tasks Reena could not handle and therefore, he started feeling overburdened. Vipul tried talking to Suresh about the issue but received a cold response.
What should Vipul do?

• A. Warn Reena of dire consequences
• B. Warn Suresh of dire consequences
• C. Ask another colleague to build a case against Reena and Suresh
• D. Reach out to the skip level manager.
• E. Reach out to the sexual harassment committee.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Reach out to the skip level manager.

Answer 2

A and B are unfair as they involve threatening. C is not correct as it will lead to maligning Reena and Suresh's reputation. Instead, Vipul can himself collect proofs. E is out of scope as there hasn't been any sexual harassment. D is the correct answer as Vipul should first apprise his skip level manager of the situation since his reporting manager is at fault.
