A Question of Scruples (1986)

Product Information

You understand the importance of team work in your job. You share ideas and responsibilities with your team members on a daily basis. In your weekly team meeting with your supervisor, one of your co-workers takes credit for a time and money saving change in operating procedures you devised. Your supervisor erroneously thinks your co-worker came up with the change and your co-worker does not correct the misinterpretation, but allows the boss to not only commend him, but offer a bonus. Do you go to your co-worker and demand he correct the situation, go to your supervisor and explain you should receive the commendation and reward, or keep quiet as you do not believe in ownership of ideas? Ethical Dilemma Questions How much do you think you should compromise in a relationship? Or change as a person, for another person? What would you class as cheating? For instance, if your partner has a crush on someone else, is that being unfaithful? What lessons have you learnt from your past relationships, which have made ours stronger or better?

How common do you think it is for people to THINK they’re in love, but actually they’re not? And what do you think are the key differences between this?(E.G. Is it love or lust?) The best problem solving games for groups include online escape rooms, moral challenges, and improv games. What are some good problem solving team building activities for students?
