A male director who had been ranked below Suggs was later promoted to area manager. Another man, who had been ranked last among the twelve directors, was promoted and transferred when he lost the account for which he was responsible. The court found Ms. Suggs was discriminated against on the basis of sex. Here the manager clearly was so biased against women that he ignored his own measures of performance and terminated a valuable employee. As a result, his company not only lost a lawsuit, but also a major customer.
