Business Simulator

A hands-on leadership experience that turns strategy into action.

The GIBS Business Simulator is an immersive, team-based business simulation designed to help leaders strengthen decision-making, execution, and profitable growth — by experiencing the real consequences of their choices in a realistic, simulated environment.

What Is the GIBS Business Simulator?

The simulation places participants in the role of senior leaders responsible for running a midsize business.

Working in teams, participants make strategic and operational decisions across customers, pricing, sales, operations, and resource allocation, then see how those decisions impact business performance over time.

What Participants Experience

During the simulation, participants:

Lead a simulated organization in a competitive market
Make decisions under real-world time pressure
Respond to changing conditions and unexpected events
Track financial and operational results
Compare outcomes with other teams

The experience mirrors the complexity and pace of real leadership.

What Participants Learn

The GIBS Business Simulator helps participants build practical insight into:

Driving profitable growth
Prioritizing high-value customers
Balancing speed and strategic judgment
Managing margins, pricing, and cash
Using data to guide decisions

Learning happens through action, reflection, and facilitated discussion — not theory alone.

Facilitated and Flexible

The simulation is delivered as a facilitated experience and can be run:

In person or online
As a focused workshop or part of a longer program
For executive teams, leadership programs, or organizational training

Structured debriefs help translate simulation results into real-world insight.
