SHE: What did you read or we discuss that reminded you of Star Trek Kobayashi Maru?
GR: Chapter 17 talks about conflict. Dan commented on Thompkins' journal entry where they "arrange up front when win conditions are mutually exclusive or partly so, the parties will be expected to move into mediation to resolve conflict." So he and I both recalled Kobayashi Maru.
During the iteractive simulation, the commander of the Enterprise is faced with conflict and has to decide between two very bad situations. No matter what decision, more conflict is presented.
There can never be a mutually exclusive win situation for both parties...
