Strategic Management Games: A Review

Abstract

This article describes seven currently available management games commonly used in the strategic management course within colleges and universities. The games reviewed have had sustained use through several editions. All are now scored by a microcomputer and use up-to-date computer technology. Five tables are included summarizing the dimensions of the games reviewed. The tables summarize for the seven games the factors categorized as the external environment and industry factors, marketing variables, production variables, and financial variables. Variables included by all of the seven games are first reviewed in each table, then unique variables are itemized for each game. This review suggests that management games are becoming much more robust and much more strategic since the review of games in this journal in 1987.
