There are two players: Anna and Michael. Anna goes first, rolls a one and moves her marker one space forward onto a space marked ‘Lessons learned’. She takes the top card off the ‘Lessons learned’ deck and reads it out: “You mention to the head of your marketing department, whose wife is the daughter of Kazakhstan’s Minister of Natural Resources, that you cannot get clearance to participate in a tender for a new license in Kazakhstan. In two weeks’ time you hear that your company has been invited to tender. You learn the power of administrative resource. Move forward two spaces.” Anna moves her marker two spaces forward and lands on a space marked ‘Case’. Anna’s turn is now over.(3) | There are two players: Anna and Michael.

Now it’s Michael’s turn to roll the dice. He rolls a three and moves three spaces forward to the space marked ‘Case’. Michael takes the top card from the deck marked ‘Case’ and reads it out: “Case 6. At a social function you learn from a colleague – the CEO of a marketing company – that the leasing enterprise providing cars to your managers belongs to the sister-in-law of your HR director. Surprised, you make some enquiries that not only confirm this to be the case but also show that your company is the only client of this leasing enterprise. You check both Russian legislation and internal company procedures and find that this situation does not qualify as a ‘conflict of interests’ because your HR director and his sister-in-law are not classed as ‘close relatives’. However, you feel uncomfortable. The HR director has been with your company for more than ten years, and although he keeps a somewhat low profile, he is always on top of current issues. | Now it’s Michael’s turn to roll the dice.
