Abstract

Tonya Thayer, Senior Partner and leader of the Consumer Package Goods practice at Sinclair Consulting, must evaluate Alan Henderson, a Principal (junior) Partner and a key member within CPG, as the six-month update on his progress and development nears. While prior reviews have listed Henderson as being "on track" for Senior Partnership, a few points have given Thayer pause. Knowing that a setback could have major ramifications for both Henderson's career and her own reputation, Thayer must weigh what kind of advice to give to Henderson, how to deliver it, and how to formulate her review of him.
