Surviving in Turbulent
Times - October 2008
What Can You Do?..Thrive, Don't Just Survive.
With markets in turmoil, your employees' fears and concerns often
shift their focus away from the company.
Aligning your employees' vision and business focus with the organization's
priorities is key to surviving and keeping employees focused on
the company.
In the last downturn, enlightened companies took immediate steps
to reassess their priorities, improve processes, and invest in their
people. As a result, these visionary organizations emerged with
a substantial competitive advantage over those companies which failed
to refocus their employees thinking and skills
Business simulations have proven to be a very effective and timely
tool for teaching new skills and enabling employees to stay focused
on competitive success. As flight simulators enable pilots to learn
to fly a 777 without risk or catastrophic consequences, business
simulations enable adults to learn safely through experience.
If your people understand where your organization wants to go -
and why - they will take you there!
What if:
- all your employees acted like they owned the company?
- all your employees could understand and embrace your Key Performance
Indicators?
- you could experiment with different strategies without risk?
- you could increase competence without spending weeks in training?
- your employees could get a hands-on experience improving sales
and performance?
Testimonials
Marguerite Foxon, Principal Performance Technologist at
Motorola University stated,
"With these simulations, we're getting a bargain for our training
dollars. We have documented significant impact on critical business
issues through simulations that run for less than two days."
"In one of our factories we came up with £1 million worth
of potential improvements as a direct result of the Celemi business
simulation."
Manager, GlaxoSmithKline
"Everyone is thinking like business owners. That means future
decisions will be made based on sound business thinking, which should
improve the financial picture much quicker."
Internal consultant, Principal Financial Group
"You know the program is effective when people from manufacturing,
sales and marketing become sensitive to each other's needs and understand
how the other operation works."
Manager, 3M
"It was great to see so many of our managers engaged in Celemi
Tango. The key issues that Tango focuses on are so real in our business
today."
CEO, Cap Gemini UK
How Do Simulations Work?
Our simulations are hands-on and interactive - not lectures.
In a simulation teams of 3 to 5 employees determine a strategic
focus and manage all the assets of their simulated company (customers,
partners, marketing, human resource, financial, and internal processes).
They plan and allocate resources, satisfy demanding customers and
employees, make decisions under conditions of uncertainty and time
constraints, manage through critical market events, prepare and
report financial statements, and communicate to the larger market
about their company.
