Abstract
This is a leadership, small group and change case that can put students in a situation as a manager of a department that operates potentially very dangerous equipment that is used to manufacture and alter highly dangerous gases. The manager is faced with the question of how to deal with the repercussions from an accident caused by one of his best operators that had contaminated the building. He was afraid that the accident had been a result of the operator smoking marijuana on the unsupervised night shift. He has to come to grips with his responsibilities and objectives as a manager, and based on his knowledge and understanding of the situation, takes steps to achieve them.
