Taught by Priyank Narayan
In this course, we explore four curated board games that have been selected for their valuable lessons in the corporate world. Monopoly may be the world’s favorite business-themed game, one that satisfies a certain kill-or-be-killed urge. But it’s not necessarily the best one to hone your management skills or teach you what you need to win in business today. These games often involve exciting and complex game mechanics that involve math, logic, probability, negotiation, bluffing, and building relationships and alliances.
We explore different strategies through a board game in each class. Each class will consist of three parts –
1. Introduction to the Game of the Day and playing the game.
2. Address by the guest speaker(s), followed by Q&A and playing with the speaker.
3. Analysing the games: the tactics, the strategies, and how these strategies can be implemented in business as well as daily lives.
We will be looking at different games throughout the course. This includes – Bridge, Poker, Catan, and Pandemic.
