It's "management" IF and ONLY IF his employers knew about it. Otherwise it's fraud. He gave permission to access company resources and property and who knows what else without the actual owners knowing about it. There is nothing laudable about his actions - frankly this is the type of thing I'd like to see "professionals" lose the ability work in the profession for.
