The Director of Development has been in her position for two years, and while she has not yet been able to raise large sums of money, she has worked hard and all of her performance reviews have been positive. Upon entering the office, she is surprised that there is another member of the senior staff present, and she can feel a tenseness that is highly unusual for this non-profit which prides itself on its warm, caring, family environment. She is quickly informed that she is being terminated and, in lieu of notice, she is being given a generous two-week severance payment. When she requests the reason for this sudden termination, the Executive Director slides a legal document entitled Waiver and Confidentiality Agreement over to her. When she refuses to sign the Agreement, the Executive Director tells her that he cannot discuss anything related to the termination. He then tells her that the other senior staff member will accompany her to her office, and that she has 20 minutes to remove all of her personal items. The Executive Director instructs her to not touch her computer, make any phone calls, or take any items belonging to the organization. Moreover, she is not to talk to any of the staff members. The other senior staff member walks with her to her office and stands watching carefully as she quickly gathers her personal items. He then escorts her out of the premises to her car.
