Alternative Therapy
SCENARIOS
Now you need to put yourself into Emily's shoes. Think about how she
has managed the revelation of her technology to Mr. Faldo. Would
you have done exactly what she did if you had been in her position?
Remember that Emily is eager to find the money to fund her further
research – has she been too hasty in the actions she has taken to
pursue her goal?
Issues you need to think about are:
n what, if anything, has Emily done wrongly in terms of protecting her
treatment method so far?
n does Emily own all the rights in her alternative therapy
treatment method? If not, what issues might arise?
n how might you improve the confidentiality agreement which Emily
has been given by NWP?
