SIMULATIONS

encourage classroom interaction and discussion. Results are available immediately for
a comprehensive debrief session. All simulations include a detailed Teaching Note.
Change Management: Power and Influence V2
In the second release of this single-player simulation, students face the challenge of implementing an
enterprise-wide, strategic change initiative. To understand how power and influence affect the ability to
bring change to an organization, students take the role of a middle manager or the CEO at a manufacturing
firm considering adopting a sustainability program. Students choose from among up to 18 change levers as
they attempt to move members of the organization from awareness to adoption.
TN SEAT TIME: 90 MINUTES #4345
“This simulation was a very useful exercise to not only try out different types of influence
‘levers,’ but also to explore how to effectively time and sequence those efforts—all in the
context of a major organizational change initiative.”
REVIEW FROM HARVARD BUSINESS PUBLISHING EDUCATION WEBSITE
“I used this simulation in a project management class for nonbusiness students and
they loved it. It is a very good tool to expose them to trade-offs project managers face in
practice, with a lot of flexibility to set how difficult one wants to make their lives. It is easy
to run, monitor, and debrief.”
