System of the business game
Special
features of conveying knowledge management by means
of a business game – advantages over other approches
The advantages
of our system lie in the concentration on the practical
skills, which are very difficult to teach by means of non-active
approaches.
Theoretical knowledge and the professional pratice often differ
substantianlly.
Therefore, knowledge management is a very complex issue for
instructors
and it cannot be implemented without the ability to think networked
and
methodically.
Our business
game enhances these skills by simulating complex systems.
This will result in an accelerated sensitization to problems. Our
business
game will contribute to initiating new learning processes in order
to overcome
existing thought patterns. Knowledge management presupposes the
social
competence of knowledge carriers (especially executives and leading
management), because the success of knowledge management mainly
depends on the ability to communicate it appropriately to the
employees and to make it tempting to them.
In our business
game different approaches to motivate employees or to convince
the management can be tried playfully.
It
is the aim of our business game to investigate to possibilties of
implementing
knowledge management systems within a company. It is further an appropriate
way of bringing home the importance of knowledge management for
their job and
for the whole company to the employees. But for teaching theoretical
basic
knowledge less active methods will be chosen.
In business
games the follwoing abilities can be practiced especially well:
- Understanding of economic
relationships
- Ability to communicate
result-orientatedly
- Promoting the ability to
make decisions in complex situations
- Formulating and achieving
goals, developing and implementing strategies
- Social skills for
intercultural teamwork
- Developing and testing
adequate forms of organization and work
- Networked thinking
- Enhancing economic knowledge
- Increasing motivation
