What is a Business Simulation?
In much the same way a flight simulator enables pilots to hone their instincts and build their flight skills, business simulations provide participants with the opportunity to “fly a business” and practice and learn by applying new ideas and concepts into a relevant business system that emulates their working environment. A computerized business simulation serves as the bridge between learning and real-life experience. By making critical business decisions in functions associated with roles in a company, participants are able to experience the immediate effect that decisions have on business performance.
