Explanation:

Janice Coleman is a team leader at Jackson Equipment. She has been promoted several times over the past five years and her performance evaluations are outstanding. One of the vice presidents at Jackson has been very friendly to Janice and has served as her mentor. He has also been asking her to go out with him for the past 2 years. She has declined and the vice president has recently suggested that she could be an area supervisor if he became her advocate with the management team. He has indicated he would be willing to do so if they began a personal relationship. Janice does not agree to the relationship and is promoted to area supervisor. Janice has filed a complaint of sexual harassment with the EEOC. Janice has a case for atmosphere of harassment.

Even though Janice got the promotion the vice president created an atmosphere of harrasment by trying to give her a promotion with a condition. His intentiins is what matters here as well as giving her a condition for a promotion even though she eventually got the position. He stirred up the atmosphere for harrasment.
