Objective

Evaluating cooperation, not only regarding content and process, but also on an interpersonal level.

The scenario

If people work together, their conversations are mostly focused on the output and content of their work. The interpersonal working relationship is rarely talked about.
In this scenario Peter is your colleague from the service department, hard-working and the expert in his area. Peter is very accurate and pays close attention to all details. That’s also what frustrates you sometimes. Expertise is important, but you are getting more and more annoyed because of his defensive behavior.

You know that you are very optimistic and tend to push too hard in certain situations. It might happen you say yes too quickly without realizing what the consequences are of you overpromising.

In this interactive role play you will practice discussing your interpersonal collaboration.
