Team members are randomly assigned roles in pre-set scenarios in the form of a "scripted murder mystery," where they experience and address various challenges encountered in real work settings. This enhances their individual and team collaboration skills and leadership abilities. Participants will have the opportunity to observe the behavior and reactions of workers in different roles from a first-person or second-person perspective in improvisational scenarios. Through role-swapping, employees can better understand each other's work methods and challenges, thereby increasing mutual understanding and improving overall performance.

This event aims to help participants explore their potential in a safe and creative environment, enhance teamwork and leadership abilities, and lay a solid foundation for future career development.
