Business Acumen
“If you’re prepared and you know what it takes, it’s not a risk. You just have to figure out how to get there. There is always a way to get there.”
– Mark Cuban
Business acumen can be defined as a quickness of understanding; dealing with business situations in a manner that is likely to lead to a positive or revenue generating outcome for the business. We believe the best way to achieve this understanding is through a process that enables people to see the big picture of their industry and the interdependencies between its elements.
This process must be both challenging and enjoyable.
The best way to grow business acumen is through experiential learning. Simulations create the opportunity for participants to run a business in competition with others, make key decisions and discover the consequences of those decisions. The journey to mastery begins with understanding and developing a fluency in the language of business.
