About This Scenario
Your engineering team was given experimental productivity-enhancing nanobots last week. Now they're exhibiting erratic behavior, missing deadlines, and showing signs of technological addiction. As Director of Operations, you must contain this situation before the board meeting in 30 minutes, while keeping the press away and preventing mass panic.
How It Starts
“Director, your engineering team's neural patterns are showing dangerous spikes. Three have already been hospitalized. I need your immediate authorization to implement containment protocols, but you should know - this will halt all project development for at least two weeks. The board won't like that, will they?”
This is how Dr. Sarah Chen - Head of NanoTech Safety Division's greeting will start.
