Overview/Description
In business today, managers are moving far beyond the boundaries of traditional directorship. Ever-evolving models require that managers be equal parts teacher, advocate and mentor, fostering the growth of their most valuable asset--personnel. This simulation assigns you the role of manager to a web development team. As a national-level ISP (Internet Service Provider), I-Spi encourages a forward-thinking, casual environment that holds education and personal advancement as a fundamental tenet. And while the majority of I-Spi's employees recognize the benefits of such a corporate culture, some do not. This simulation is based on the SkillSoft Series "Crucial Skills for Tomorrow's Managers" and has links to the following courses: mgmt_04_a01_bs_enus and mgmt_04_a03_bs_enus.
