Q: James is about to conduct a performance appraisal for Maria. Maria has exhibited some performance problems in the past months. She has been coming in late and leaving early, and she missed two important deadlines. At the same time, she is a very likable and nice person who gets along well with others in the office. James also knows that Maria has a significant amount of debt and getting a bonus after this appraisal would really help her. James does not to jeopardize his relationship with her and does not want to prevent her from getting the bonus. Therefore, he is considering giving her a "good" rating in the appraisal. What would be your advice to James regarding this situation?
