Next, provide your analysis of the situation, including what went right or wrong, and discuss how you would have chosen to deal with the situation, keeping in mind legal and ethical contexts of human resource management.
Introduction
A recent human resources management incident occurred while serving in my current role as the Assistant Aircraft Maintenance Officer (AAMO) of Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 29 (MALS 29). This problematic situation was the alleged violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act; specifically an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) complaint for prejudice based on race. This specific incident occurred when a recently joined military subordinate member felt that his immediate leadership was being overly critical and watchful of every move that he made. Specifically, the Marine believed that not all members of his work center peer group received this level of treatment and determined that it must be due to his racial background.
