The Football League Challenge
The game works well in a number of differing situations.
Degree Courses [Undergraduate or MBA]
- Ice-breaker at the start of the entire program, or individual courses – especially in Strategy, but also in General Management or H.R./Organizational Behaviour.
- Capstone exercise at the end of courses in any of the topics above.
Executive Courses
- Team-building and instructional introduction at the start of company-specific or open-enrolment courses.
- As a light, but insightful wrap-up exercise at the end of such courses, when participants are not in a good frame of mind for a further heavy class of case analysis or theory.
In-Company Events
As a team-building exercise for off-site events with larger groups of staff.
- For staff induction, e.g. introducing graduate recruits to simple business ideas and the concept of how an integrated organization works and performs.
