PLANSPIELAUSWAHL „It was obvious that the carefully selected group of 25 Business and Entrepreneurship Fellows – part of a flagship program of the Young African Leaders Initiative set up by President Obama in 2010 – was enormously talented and yet their business knowledge and experience was often tightly confined along functional lines.“ Dr. John Michel Associate Professional Specialist at Mendoza 6 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc.

ERGEBNISSE „For many, Capstone was an eye opening experience at the integrative elements of business success. The simulation is carefully designed so that it is not possible to generate desired business success from excellence in a single funtional area, all areas must be aligned. Several participants commented that this significantly altered the way they think about their businesses and are planning immediate changes upon 3 their return.“ 5 4 2 1 Dr. John Michel Associate Professonal Specialist at Mendoza 21 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc. ERGEBNISSE „My goal was to take the simulation experience home to Zimbawe because we need strategists now, and this forces leaders to think about the bigger picture, about five, six, seven different departments and their effect on the end goal.“ 5 4 3 2 1 Takunda Chingonza Co-Founder of NeoLab Technologies und YALI Teilnehmer 22 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc. ERGEBNISSE „The experience helped participants break their assumptions because they have to think broad, they have to think on their feet, and they have to look at all the different aspects of business at once.“ 5 4 3 2 1 Professor of Marketing Dr Peter Opio Co-Teacher of the simulation 23 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc. ERGEBNISSE „Capstone gives the opportunity for them to practice what team leadership, decision-making using robust data and evidence is all about. I have taught human resources management, I‘ve taught strategy, but no product brings this out more realistically and more robustly than Capstone. It is fun – but it shakes them.“ 5 4 3 2 1 Professor of Marketing Dr Peter Opio Co-teacher of the simulation 24 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc. ERGEBNISSE „The University of Notre Dame has been great in teaching us to come together… saying Africa can get better by bringing everyone together… and what the simulation did for us was to say ‚we are running a company‘, it‘s not your company, it is not my company, it‘s our company. When we lose, we lose together. You can‘t point fingers.“ 5 4 3 2 1 Lerato Tshabalala Editor & Writer 25 © 2015 Capsim Management Simulations, Inc.
