- W1160915892 abstract "The purpose of the study was to determine whether business simulations helped further systems thinking in individuals. To establish whether improved systems thinking may be a result of participating in business simulation programs, participants needed to be separated from their day-to-day reality and confronted with managing their organisations in a virtual world. The virtual world in which participants needed to immerse themselves was a customised business simulation designed to capture some of the critical elements of their organisation in a simplified virtual micro-world. This new world allowed participants to engage with and experiment with their organisations in a risk free environment and from a holistic systems perspective. Experimental research was conducted to determine whether it may be possible that individuals participating in these business simulation programs experience a shift in mental models towards systems thinking. The feedback received from participants showed high levels of agreement with respect to the fact that the simulation tools allowed them to engage with the virtual model from a systems perspective. Approximately a third of all participants reported that their most significant insight during the simulation program was in some way related to their new way of seeing and understanding the system of which they are part. Research Report – Michael Schlosser ii The study concludes with the notion that organisations should further encourage systems thinking, which will help them deal with the complexity of the environment in which we operate on a day-to-day basis. Furthermore, improved systems thinking may help us overcome some significant barriers to learning and thereby improve our capabilities in respect to dealing with change. Further research is needed to better qualify the specific skill sets necessary for improved systems thinking. Research Report – Michael Schlosser iii" @default.
