vLeader Simulation
Dr. Matthew Bowler — Director of the MBA Program and Associate Professor of Management in the Spears School of Business at Oklahoma State University
vLeader is an individual on-line simulation combined with a workbook and discussions that gives participants to the opportunity to experiment with different leadership and communication styles in a non-threatening and risk-free environment. The simulation includes using a workbook to introduce new ideas and techniques that the participant can use in their interactions with the characters in the simulation. The scenarios build on each other by adding more simulated characters and more complex meetings in each seminar which provides plenty of challenge to the participant. The simulation allows them to become more self-aware and aware of other individuals and plan a strategy for their communication. Further, the simulation allows participants to reflect on how particular styles lead to different individual and group outcomes, and expand their ability to communicate and lead in multiple ways. The simulation scenarios are mixed with group discussions to share ideas about what works, what doesn’t work, and what can be transferred to the real-world work environment. Participants should have the product installed before arriving at seminar.
