Summer BAMG 456 Class Competes & Earn Distinctions in GLO-BUS Competition
GLO-BUS is an online business strategy simulation that pits groups of students against other students worldwide. The objective is to craft and execute a competitive strategy for their business that results in a respected brand image, keeping the company in contention for global market leadership, and having high financial performance.
The summer BAMG 456 class led by Dalong Ma was split into eleven groups in which five groups competed in Industry 3 and six groups competed in Industry 4. Dr. Ma was ecstatic at how well his students did among so many other colleges worldwide. Students from Company A in Industry 3 reported that this was a great overall experience, they grew individually and as a group as the simulation continued. They learned how to change philosophies and change their focus based on what their company performed and how their decisions affected other companies. Several teams have commented that this exercise amidst the COVID distancing has improved their overall communication skills as they could never meet in person together.
