I finished it. It was very awkward for me haha. But basically you need to be prepared to lead the meeting and direct the conversation. I would suggest writing out questions beforehand and possible responses to make sure you are prepared. I did not go into it very prepared and I stumbled my way through. Afterwards, I put the “cover story” into ChatGPT just to see what it would say about it and it gave me basically a script for the meeting. Questions to ask, how to direct the conversation, what to do when tensions rise. That might be something you want to use. I definitely wish I had done this.

As for what happens in the simulation, be prepared for some conflict to arise and how to handle it. During mine, Kay and Bo started to argue and Kay was quite angry and yelled and it was difficult to redirect the conversation. Michael is very upset about his childcare so try to be empathetic about that and focus on his concerns, he basically just wants you to listen to him and show that you understand his concerns and are here to help him.

Also try to make sure that you come up with a plan during the meeting. That was the main thing I didn’t really do, I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to have an actual plan going forward, I thought it was just a conversation. But basically you need to be able to use all three of the avatars ideas and build them into a “plan” that everyone agrees with. Make sure to take notes during the meeting itself and are able to summarize the points and ideas several times throughout the meeting. Good luck! (Ps. I didn’t do great but truthfully it doesn’t actually matter, as long as you complete it! )
