No one learns to swim by reading an instruction manual and it's no different with other life skills. When people learn by doing, they are engaged, become energized, stick with it, and learn more.

Because players' personal names are not revealed during play, players feel free to experiment, reverse roles, push the envelope, break through old patterns and try something different.

|
The Aha! insights gained through simulations are priceless. No two simulations are the same so players can repeat their experiments and vary their roles or their decisions.
|

|
|
A simulation lab is a safe place to face conflict, risk failure, experiment and discover which ideas, strategies and actions produce the outcomes we want.
|
|
|
|
Because players are free to make their own way, they more readily accept the outcomes. Failure instructs and success reinforces. The results are memorable experiences, deep learning and lasting new skills.

Skillful negotiators know how to harvest the opportunity in conflict. That insight and skill is only developed through experience.

If one group worked through a traditional e-learning course while the other experienced a simulation, the outcomes would be very different. People in the first group may be able to recall facts and information, but probably wouldn't be able to apply them well. But the second group would be equipped to use the information to make better decisions ones that impact their performance and productivity.

|
|
People at every level of skill can participate and improve their ability to understand and deal with conflict. Everyone benefits.
