Question

Following mini-case scenarios involve ethical dilemmas associated with project
management. How would you respond to each situation, and why? 

The Project Status Report Meeting
You are driving to a project status report meeting with your client. You encountered a significant technical
problem on the project that has put your project behind schedule. This is not good news because
completion time is the number one priority for the project. You are confident that your team can solve the
problem if they are free to give their undivided attention to it and that with hard work 2 you can get back
on schedule. You also believe if you tell the client about the problem, she will demand a meeting with
your team to discuss the implications of the problem. You can also expect her to send some of her
personnel to oversee the solution to the problem. These interruptions will likely further delay the project.
What should you tell your client about the current status of the project?
