Business Culture I – Crash Landing

Course Description
“The course will deal with cultural awareness and country specific culture. Content: Simulation game, culture and traditions in Sweden and other countries, cultural differences and the art of crossing cultures.”

Today we had a little simulation game in which we should try to survive after a plane crash in the dessert. Our assignment was to order fifteen items (Waterbottle, Knife, Map, Parachute, e.g.) from most-important to most-useless. We started in groups with three people and in the end we discussed the problem in two big groups around 20 people. The chance to survive raised from the first tries (around 50% approx.) to nearly 80% in the end.

Nice to see how the chances grow when people work together. 🙂
