Business management games against operational blindness
Imagine a working world in which experimentation happens without risk. Is that not possible? Of course it is. It's completely normal in simulations at NASA and other professions.
Unfortunately, this opportunity is not available in normal office life. Deliberately organise a business management game to get your employees to think and rethink. The advantage is quite clear: new perspectives create new opportunities and, above all, you can prevent operational blindness from becoming a widespread disease.
