Session plan

1. 10 minThe sceneWhere this shows up: repair shops and customer sites, working with supervisors, customers, other technicians.

   From Industrial Production Managers (11-3051.00)
2. 15 minRun itPairs. One plays the supervisors, one plays the Ambulance Drivers and Attendants, Except Emergency Medical Technicians. Run the scene for four minutes, then swap. The observer scores against the criteria before anyone discusses it.
