Build-Your-Business Simulation

Business Acumen is increasingly being viewed as a must-have competency for every leader at every level, to be viewed as a true business partner. It is the keenness and quickness in understanding and dealing with a business situation in a manner that is likely to lead to a good outcome.

FocusU in association with KNOLSKAPE brings the Build Your Business Simulation which is designed to help participants understand and practice business acumen and entrepreneurship capabilities. Within the simulation, participants assume the role of the company’s CEO, responsible for all the business decisions – pricing, production, quality, advertising, employee morale and ensuring the successful launch of a new venture. The simulation allows participants to read financial documents, understand the interdependency between functions, taking risks, and the importance of all the functions working together for the business to thrive and report high profits.

By enabling participants to experience and work through such challenges which are as close to real life as possible, the simulation analytics and debrief sessions (optional) by the facilitators help participants in deriving great insight into the skill of business acumen.

The simulation throws up useful analytics for individual participants that includes:
• Net Profit
