Project Tools: Simulations
Simulations: A simulation creates a temporary reality that gives rise to real behaviors, real energy and even some fun. The result: greater immediacy, depth and retention of what participants learn about coaching, leadership, teamwork, change, customers, communication or whatever organizational need the simulation has been focused on. We offer several simulations from Discovery Learning, Inc.:
Paper Planes, Inc., a full-day manufacturing-based simulation used to teach leadership, teamwork, supervision, quality control, customer focus and communication.
PressTime, an intensive, 1.5-day PC-based simulation and facilitated debriefing for upper-level teams and/or intact teams, used to duplicate organizational dynamics involved in upgrading a product under competitive pressure.
Edgework, a full-day organizational simulation that explores the cultural and team implications of change - specifically, of a joint venture between an established company and a newer, entrepreneurial, more high-tech organization.
Paper Scrapers, a high-energy, interactive two-hour teamwork and group-building activity.
