Rich Insinga
"Before starting a full-time academic career, I spent twenty-five years in industry where team-based computer simulations were a regular part of corporate training programs. The BSG brings such experiences to my students, making them 'put it all together' as they run their companies and compete with each other. Because it is an objective measure of performance, the BSG gives them a dose of reality that is a memorable part of the course.

I began using The Business Strategy Game in 1993 when it was on 5-1/4 inch floppies and have used it since then, evolving with the changing technology. The on-line version is great!"
