How can we teach people in our client companies the general rules of business?

Answer 1

My Rule #1 for Y!A users. Learn to ask questions for which there are answers.

There is only one general rule for business. Each company must set it's own rules. There are many models which work. The rules for Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream are quite different from the rules at The Bank of America.

Answer 2

It’s a great idea to interact with your client companies in an interactive way. Business simulation allows you to teach them what you would like to get across in a challenging and fun environment. There’s an online business simulation site called the Informatist ( http://www.informatist.net/ ), which is probably a good place to start. I understand that they also do custom adaptation.
