Real Conversations. Real Dilemmas. Real Leadership.
This collection of nine real-world roleplay cases dives deep into the messy, human side of leadership—where email etiquette, performance conversations, and unwritten norms collide with identity, hierarchy, and pressure to perform.
At first glance, each case may sound familiar: a punctual employee whose 9-to-5 rhythm irritates their overworked peers; a vacation clash between personal plans and critical client needs; a senior team member who questions your authority. But beneath these situations lie rich opportunities to explore core leadership tensions: how to balance empathy with accountability, navigate informal power, and hold authority while staying human.
