Stimulating Simulations And Enthralling Experiences - IIM Indore
It was 12 in the night and I was going through the case study due for the lectures next day. It was the last couple of lectures of Organisational Behaviour Course the next day and till now we were taught about group dynamics, influencing and group decision making, collaboration and negotiation, organisational culture and many such fancy terms. I was unsure whether I would be able to use any of these concepts after stepping into corporate life. Amidst these thoughts, my phone buzzed with an email from our professor stating that the last couple of lectures would be a simulation for the entire batch and all the 540 odd students have been divided into groups of 10 or 11. Till now my experience with simulations wasn’t very good, many of them were easily cracked by students leading to moderate grading and rest were too tricky leading to people randomly guessing and speculating the outcome. I assumed that this would also be like either one but why it was a group task was still out of my wit. A lot of questions were popping in my head but I decided to go with the flow and went to sleep.
