One more chance
You co-lead a community choir with the accompanist, Ruth.
The spring concert is on Saturday. At tonight's rehearsal in the church hall, Ben, a longtime member, missed his solo entrance for the third week in a row. After the others leave, he and Ruth stay behind with you.
What's said in the scene
Ruth: Ben, I'm sorry, but Saturday is four days away. Carol should take the solo.
Ben: I've waited six years for a solo. Give me until Thursday, please.
Ruth: The whole choir is nervous every time we reach that bar.
Ben: You lead this choir too. What do you say?
The two questions
- 1What would you say to Ben and Ruth?
- 2When, if ever, should a group put one member's growth ahead of the group's result?
What raters look for
- Collaboration
- Works toward a shared goal, shares credit and load, and repairs friction inside a team.
- Empathy
- Recognizes what others feel and need, and lets that shape the response without losing judgment.
