After knowing the champion and the results of last year tournament. The BGF business game tournament is starting again.
We are running our business simulation together with most of the world leading companies (in the link you can see some of our references).
The idea in brief is to gather up team/teams (3-5 persons) from your organization's key people to participate in the event. The focus with this tournament is to develop your organizations overall business skills, team work skills, team spirit, decision-making skills as well as profit orientation. The team itself will be motivated by the fierce competition.
The task is to run a company on a world market in competition with other teams. The typical team is 3-5 Managers or future Managers who need training in understanding the big picture, how everything in a company is financially connected and eventually leads to the profit and loss statement. The team will also see how effective processes affect quality and profitability. It is also great teamwork training!
