Cash only
You help run a bread stall at a Saturday farmers market.
The card reader stopped working at the busiest hour, and most customers carry no cash. The nearest cash machine is a ten-minute walk away. The stall's owner, Odile, is facing a regular customer, Mr. Amadi, at the front of a long line.
What's said in the scene
Odile: Cash only until it's fixed. I can't give bread away on promises.
Mr. Amadi: I've bought here every week for two years. I'll pay you next Saturday.
Odile: And the twenty people behind you? Do I trust all of them?
Mr. Amadi: You'll be throwing out bread by noon. Surely there's a better way?
The two questions
- 1What would you suggest to Odile?
- 2How do you make a good decision quickly when you cannot have all the facts?
What raters look for
- Problem solving
- Gathers facts before acting, considers options and consequences, and chooses a workable next step.
- Collaboration
- Works toward a shared goal, shares credit and load, and repairs friction inside a team.
