Abstract:
Simulation Solution for Leadership and Team Simulation: Everest V2 by Michael A. Roberto, Amy C. Edmondson
The simulation uses the dramatic context of a Mount Everest expedition to reinforce student learning in group dynamics and leadership. Students play one of 5 roles on a team of hikers attempting to summit the mountain. During each round of play they must collectively discuss whether to attempt the next camp en route to the summit. Ultimately, teams must climb through 5 camps in 6 simulated days totaling approximately 1.5 actual hours of seat time. Team members analyze information on weather, health conditions, supplies, goals, or hiking speed, and determine how much of that information to communicate to their teammates. Along the journey, the team must also decide how to effectively distribute supplies and oxygen bottles needed for the ascent--decisions which affect hiking speed, health, and ultimately the team's success in summiting the mountain. Failure to accurately communicate and analyze information as a team has negative consequences on team performance. This second release of the web-based Leadership and Team Simulation: Everest combines the proven learning objectives and storyline of the original with an updated user experience and enhanced administrative features.
