Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cannibalizing refers to using resources from one job or business to support another job or business, usually to a detrimental effect on the original source. Mandy is using her employer's client list, which is not ethical, to build her own business, thus affecting her employer's chances of getting more clients. Ken, Cathy, and Jenson are not necessarily cannibalizing in their situations.
