Where you are
You manage delivery for the scheduling platform. The client director has moved the demo because she must choose whether to fund the next phase.
Escenario 5 · Rol B
quien administra la entrega
You need a useful client decision on Thursday
Esta ficha es solo tuya. La otra persona tiene objetivos y datos distintos. No intercambien pantallas hasta terminar.
Decisive but realistic. The client’s director can only attend Thursday. They start. About 10 turns · 9 minutes.
Your screen only. Don't show it. Learn what is demonstrable, then protect the client decision without turning a preview into a promise.
Tu información
Lo que sabes y lo que necesitas
You want
You want Thursday’s meeting to show enough value for a funding decision and leave no confusion about unfinished work.
You can't
- Move the director’s meeting back to Friday.
- Add contractors or budget today.
- Send a demo scope that the project lead has not confirmed.
Only you know
- The director’s decision depends mainly on whether staff can complete a booking without help.
- She will accept a roadmap for analytics if it includes a date and dependency.
- The client liaison can send the fresh data file by noon only if you request it before 9:30 a.m.
If you finish with nothing
The director attends a vague meeting, the next phase remains unfunded and the team loses another week waiting for a decision.

Cuándo terminar
Closing criterion
Close when both people record the same seven details:
- The Thursday meeting time and length.
- The stable booking flow.
- The analytics preview label.
- The missing data dependency.
- The mobile-filter tradeoff and Monday date.
- The security-answer owner and deletion date.
- The client message owner and deadline.
Success: You protect Thursday’s decision window, narrow the live demo to the stable booking flow and own the data request. You send no client scope until feature labels, tradeoff and follow-up date are shared.
