 If you're looking for an innovative and fun way to teach managers about the difference structure and support make in employee performance, it's time to play The Strategic Leadership Game. A full toolbox of ideas to help managers experience how leaders manage task performance. The game consists of two rounds: Game A simulates a typical task assignment. Participants are delegated a task with clear output criteria, but without any useful support or structure. They'll experience first-hand the performance pressure, anxiety and failure employees feel when assignments are handed over to them without appropriate instruction or feedback. Game B also simulates a routine assignment. But participants are placed in pairs, one as manager and one as employee. The manager is responsible for supporting the employee's efforts. They'll discover how the appropriate type of leadership makes tasks easier to do and instills a sense of accomplishment. Key Benefits
