Winning: The How and Why of Business War Games (invitation to free webinar)
This post is an invitation for you to attend a free webinar presented by Mark Chussil (that's me) of Advanced Competitive Strategies on behalf of the LinkedIn group “Corporate Planning & Global Industry Segmentation.”
The webinar will be on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, at 1:30 pm east-coast time, 10:30 am west-coast time. It will be one hour in duration. You can access video through a web link that you will receive 30 minutes before the webinar begins. (See “How to sign up,” below.) You can access audio by dialing a phone link that you’ll receive with the web link.
The topic is Winning: The How and Why of Business War Games.
Overview
Business war games sound cool. That’s because they are. Business war games are more than a way to escape the tedium of gigabyte spreadsheets and death by PowerPoint. They are a way to put your knowledge of your business to better use. With business war games strategists can achieve surprising new insights into businesses they know well. And by the way, business war games are not about war.
Agenda for our interactive presentation
◦Why business war games work where conventional strategy development doesn’t.
◦What business war games are good for.

◦How to design or select a business war game for your company.
◦What strategists have learned from business war games; in other words, war stories.
◦Q&A
