Description
Pacific is primarily a complete course with techniques, tips and tools applicable to learning how to become a leader. The contribution of the secrets on leadership of over 200 leading executives and CEOs (whom we interviewed) as well as Gamelearn's 15 years of experience in corporate training guarantee Pacific's theoretical approach, which is based on six key notions:
- Providing meaning to teamwork
- Building a team to face synergies
- Team motivation
- Tool development
- The correct delegation of tasks
- Feedback and coaching to boost teams
Gamelearn's developers decided to set the story in an environment of survival and cooperation: a group of people that are lost on an island in the Pacific. A favorable setting to explain the benefits of teamwork and staying motivated.[2][3]
Goal definition, conflict resolution as well as real and immediate feedback are other skills simulated on our protagonist´s island, focused at all times on practicing through the simulator.
