Bullying in the workplace is becoming more pronounced as victims tend to speak out and speak up. Do managers realise how their actions are construed/misconstrued by their subordinates? What constitutes an abuse of power versus stretching an employee to reach their full potential? The ethical concepts of consequentialism and nonconsequentialism are discussed. The movie ‘The Devil wears Prada’ is used to discuss this concept.

Includes 10 quiz questions.
