In a business management simulation, management-related decisions are demanded of the students under competitive conditions and thus under uncertainty, which require recourse to the acquired specialist knowledge and the coordination of the operational functional areas. The management simulation extends over several periods, includes the analysis of key business figures, the consideration of macroeconomic framework data (economy, interest rates, wages ...) and forces a strategic and networked way of thinking. In presentations, strategic and operational situations, goals and positive as well as negative results are ana- lytically prepared, delivered and presented in writing. Special emphasis is placed on the use of general methods of analysis and presentation (methodological competence).
