Org Sim Jr.: A 2-3 Hour Version of the 2-Day Blanchard/Murrell Organization Simulation

Abstract

Five years of successful development and use of the Blanchard/Murrell Organizational Simulation (Org Sin) led to the creation of the shortened version of the simulation in the summer of 1991 (Blanchard/Murrell. 1986). It had been used successfully in several other universities, in public and private business and in cross-cultural settings; however, the logistics of a full two-day simulation limited the applicability. University colleague and business partners wanted a version that could be conducted in less time, could he facilitated by one or two people and would require only one room, not the four’ needed for the full version.
