Tias Business School specialises in so-called company specific programmes (see www.tias.edu). These programmes have been fully customised by Tias Business School for one customer and one such programme is the Quint Wellington Redwood MBA training. Quint is a renowned international organisation enhancement agency that is solely committed to solving management problems with regard to information technology.

Tias Business School has asked Simenco to supply a business game that was a part of the Quint Wellington Redwood MBA training and made a contribution to its ambition: Quint for Gold.

The business game was devised as a so-called ‘pressure cooker’. During two days the 21 senior consultants had to solve increasingly complex management problems ever faster. It stood to reason that the title of the programme was 'Dare to Challenge'.

The evaluation by the customer was excellent (1-5, n=21):

• Usefulness of the game (4,24)
• Interactivity level (4,33)
• Game materials used (4,52)
• nearly 50% of the participants awarded the maximum score of 5 points to the simulation

A few quotations:

• “Very enjoyable and instructive! Nice to see that all we learned has been incorporated into the game!”
• “Well made and interesting game.”
• “A fun game. Well supported on the net. You can see that a lot of the topics covered in the training is used in the game (Marketing, Operations, Finance)”
• “Very good material. Good tooling.”
• “Good fun and useful.”
• “Very enjoyable and instructive!!"
