Gold of the Desert

Join us at the Graduate School of DEREE to learn about the importance of leadership skills and participate in a unique business simulation. The event is open to HR managers and practitioners, business professionals and prospective graduate students.

Saturday, 15 January 2011, 10:30-15:00,
DEREE - The American College of Greece
Aghia Paraskevi Campus - 6 Gravias Street

The Experience:

Teams rush to compete against each other in a challenging race across the desert. Their goal? Battle the elements to get to the mountains to mine for as much gold as possible and return home alive. Teams need to be as productive as possible with limited time and resources. Participants will experience the benefits of teamwork, planning, setting goals and taking necessary risks.

Results:

Increase productivity, create vision, improve the decision-making process, manage change, plan for success, achieve exceptional team results
