In one of the pieces of training that I attended, I was asked to be a part of a role player. I felt challenged.

The scenario given was as follows: You are in a meeting and one of your colleagues suggest an idea you know will not work. As you suggest to the group that this is not practical, the colleague who suggested the idea turns and states You are always the person who does not want to hear my ideas. She then storms out of the meeting. You set up a time to meet with your colleague.

Ego does not allow a role play to remain a role player. A role play can be taken as a fun exercise but eventually, it becomes a competition as you know that others are watching and studying you.

First, I will discuss the scenario and how it progressed. Next, I will explain as to what was happening in my mind, what I actually was thinking and why I did certain things.

This was not an acceptable idea for two reasons.
