What is a war game?
Is competitor role play a better term? Culture decides
► ‘Is a role playing simulation of a competitive market place’
► Used either for general management training, team building or as a tool to explore and test competitive strategies to discover any weaknesses in a plan and to identify possible consequences of adopting such a plan
► Teams of players take roles and simulate the dynamics of a market place over a period of time
► The actions of each team will have an impact on both the effectiveness of current strategies of other teams and future directions for the game
► The idea is for participants to gain a perspective of the marketplace from outside their own firm
► ‘Not a War and Not a Game’ Ben Gilad► ‘A structured forum to assess competitors likely moves’
► Benefits- Gain a better and shared understanding of the competitor arena- Sensitise delegates to competitor moves- Identify ‘blindspots’- Provides the start point for monitoring competitors intent and capability and improving assumptions- Team building- Better counter-intelligence capabilities
