Learning unit contents
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
This course is based on a "serious gaming" activity wich allows the student to:
- test out personally;
- analyse together with his peers, under the conduct of a third party;
- understand and generalize professional situations :
- a company functioning and the fundamental processes that structure it;
- organizational change management and its impact on the groups and individuals.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is preceded by an introductory session in the auditorium but takes place mainly in the form of a seminar: from Friday to Saturday evening.
The introductory session sets out the objectives, framework and methodology of the course; it also introduces students to the themes of the course and the position they will be asked to take in the seminar.
During the seminar, students are divided into groups of 4-6 people supervised by a professional psychosocial consultant. The same mission is assigned at each group: the conquest of a planet, a strategy game software that presents many analogies with the operation of a company (strategies's definition and declination in operational objectives, human resource's management, supply chain's management, decision-making in uncertainty or crisis situation, etc.).
The same learning sequence is repeated 5 times during the seminar and complicated gradually: preparation and organization in a group, conducted simulation team, psycho-social and psycho-organizational debriefing managed by the psycho-social consultant, sequence of individual & collective auto-reflexivite for students with a methodology of "synopsis". The training sequence restarts with a collective reserarch for improvement and the definition of the improved organization.
During the same weekend, students receive a session of discussion in small groups with Alumni of GxABT on all aspects of working life in a company or organization that they want to address.
A post-seminar session allows students to go deeper into the content and ask questions to the supervisors, to prepare the exam.
