About the Board Simulation program
The Board Simulation educational program serves as an important pillar of engagement between AmCham and academia. A scripted role-playing simulation of an fictious board meeting is enacted by AmCham member volunteers, who draw upon their own experiences. Real business debates are enacted concentrating on various critical strategic decisions.
The audience watches how these decisions are influenced by various facts, personalities, and circumstances, and how potential consequences are considered. Corporate governance best practices are discussed. Students experience firsthand how a typical board meeting transpires. The topics discussed at the meeting are designed in a multi-layered practical manner. Studies for undergraduate and graduate students are supplemented. Discussions are playacted with deliberate intensity when sensitive issues and difficult decisions are discussed.
