Intelligent Business Acumen Training
Board game based training or electronic tournament style business simulations naturally emphasize the vehicle over the destination. Likewise, participants can't help having an over emphasis on the outcome of the game over the outcome of the business results they'll take back to the office.
You'll find it refreshing that we emphasize the destination over the vehicle. We've gone to great lengths to research and create learning materials and tools that don't get in the way of the end result. You're making an investment in us to teach your employees your core business, not to spend time teaching them the rules of a game or instructing them how to install and run software.
We don't buy the argument that business acumen training needs to be "dumbed-down" in order for lower tier employees to pay attention. Our research and client feedback tell us that this line of thinking is false, and that the opposite is true… employees at all levels appreciate being taught how to link their priorities to the big picture.
70/20/10 Learning Method
If you subscribe to the 70/20/10 learning and development model that suggests that 70% of learning comes from real-life experiences, 20% from observing and working with mentors, and 10% happens in a classroom - you'll find games and simulations alone are not enough, as they overly emphasize classroom learning.
Whereas, Acumen Learning has invested heavily in creating a unique follow-up process that helps create business acumen mentors and stresses transference of knowledge into the workplace.
If you're looking for "The Game of Life - Business Edition" we're not your solution. If you're looking for business acumen training that creates business results… let's talk.
