About Business Games
Decision making course in a pod + analysis on politics and geopolitics, local and international business, world economy, armed conflicts, foreign policy & international relations.
What
Business Games started off in 2021 as an advanced course-in-a-pod(cast) in decision-making and strategic thinking, for students and leaders alike.
We're going to use the current affairs and medium-term trends in international relations and business to continue teaching how to process information, filter misinformation, analyse the situation, and anticipate the likely future developments.
Who
I have a PhD in Economics from Universität Mannheim (Germany) and I have consulted on strategy such firms as UniCredit (Italy), norisbank (part of the Deutsche Bank Group), Westpac NZ, Meridian Energy NZ.
I grew my own firm from scratch to offer strategy consulting to international firms and I employed up to 7 employees at one time. I am also a Chartered Member of the NZ Institute of Directors and hold governance roles.
In addition to entrepreneurship and consulting, I co-authored The Big Issues in Employment: HR Management and Employment Relations in Australasia - 2nd Edition, contributed to Sustainable Finance Forum Roadmap for Action Final Report - November 2020, give numerous talks and taught advanced students at several universities in Germany and NZ.
Why
I have started Business Games to package all my experience and share it with lifelong learners at all levels—it's of great value to students and leaders alike:
- We have one of the top CMOs in Australasia writing great things about us on LinkedIn.
- An international brand strategist located in Belgium wrote up this fantastic summary review.
How Much
Somewhere between 50% and 75% of all the material costs an email subscription only (= $ free).
However! If you want access to Premium content and/or you want to support our work, I created 2 pricing plans. They give you identical benefits (bonus content + full transcripts of the podcast episodes) and therefore it's up to you which you choose. I chose a high-trust model and a sort of a donation equivalent: choose how much you want to pay (from 2 options), depending on your desire and financial situation:
- Student Gold: Student and recession-proof pricing of $33 USD per year or $3.50 USD per month (both with 7-day free trial)—OR:
- Gold: $111 USD per year or $15 USD per month.
An MBA program runs into tens & hundreds of thousands of dollars—and an MBA would teach you marketing, finance, HR…
…but an MBA doesn't teach you how to understand the real world.
Business Games does.
