Management Game is a “course is designed to integrate the managerial concepts and techniques studied earlier in the curriculum and to focus on elements of organizational structure and behavior. Student teams assume the role of top management of firms competing in an international economy simulated by the Carnegie Mellon University Management Game. Each team is responsible to a Board of Directors comprised of alumni/ae of the Industrial Management program and business masters students. Emphasis is placed on the development and implementation of sound organizational decision structures as well as the formulation of effective competitive strategies.” (Course description)
I was elected Game president this week! We just had our team member draft, so I now have a team of star performers. Time to start “storming and norming”… setting up team expectations and roles & resposibilities, etc. It’s going to be fun next year…
