Introduction to the scenario
The scenario is an adventure. You're presented with
a challenging situation and a choice
of three options of how to act. You chose one option,
which opens up a number of other options, and so on,
until you reach an outcome.
When you reach an outcome, go back and choose
other options to see the effect of your different
choices. Going back to a point where you can make alternative
decisions may mean going back a few levels or back to
the beginning, depending on where you are in the scenario.
The scenario gives you the opportunity to try
out different ways of dealing with challenges,
without having to test them out in real life! While
some approaches may be better than others, there's rarely
one correct answer. The purpose is to see the effect
that your actions would have.
Be honest with yourself, try different ways of reacting
to things and have fun!
In this scenario, you have to interview potential
volunteers with very different backgrounds than you
are used to. Your organisation has no policies
to help you, how do approach the interviews?
If you need more guidance consult scenario
help.
