One day you left for an out of town business summit. You entrusted him the whole organization while you are not around. When you came back, you have found out that there are important documents lost inside your office. You have already conducted an investigation and there was no lead who had stolen the said documents. Your employee apologized about his negligence and asked for a second chance to regain your trust. As a manager what is your stand about the incident?
