Description
This is a wonderful opportunity for high- and mid-level managers, as well as risk management specialists and students, to see the real-life benefits of risk management when making executive decisions.
A large company is considering an opportunity to obtain a majority share in a start-up called PLAN4U. You have to make important executive decisions, weighing up the strategic, financial and operational risks involved. The outcome of the game will depend on the quality of your teamwork and risk analysis.
- The winning team is the one that successfully completes a merger, having mitigated the risks involved for both sides.
- Each game participant has a defined role. Everyone has their own hidden agenda and interest associated with the success or failure of the merger between PLAN4U and the media holding company.
- Each round teams will have to make decisions about risk identification, analysis and mitigation.
- The eventual cost of obtaining the company and thus the extent of your success will depend on the effectiveness of your team’s risk management.
