Option 1 - Look for Common Ground Between Differing Perspectives. Below is a scenario, based on Roger Fisher's Book, Getting to Yes, outlining competing needs for a limited resource. Read the scenario and design a compromise between the two parties. [Dr. Jones and Dr. Roland, two biological research scientists representing rival pharmaceutical companies, each seek to acquire the entire crop of Ugli Oranges that was grown in the world this year. Dr. Jones is interested in the Ugli Oranges because of a recent outbreak of Rudosen, a disease contracted by pregnant women that causes serious brain, eye, and ear damage to unborn children unless the pregnant mothers are inoculated early in their pregnancies. The rind of the Ugli Orange can be made into a synthetic chemical serum by Dr. Jones company to prevent the spread of Rudosen. Dr. Roland is interested in the Ugli Oranges because of a recent leak of nerve gas from old chemical warfare bombs stored in bomb chambers on a small Pacific island. Thousands of people will die or suffer serious brain damage if the gas gets out of the bomb chambers and spreads to the coast. The pulp of the Ugli Orange can be made into a synthetic chemical gas by Dr. Rolands company to neutralize the nerve gas. Mr. Cardoza, a farmer in South America, owns most or all of the Ugli Oranges grown in the world this year.] Meeting the competing needs of the three parties, recommend a proposal in which the conflict might be resolved satisfactorily. Write a short report (5-7 sentences) describing your suggested recommendation. Submit your written report.
