In our Business Connections class‚ we used a simulation called “Biz Café”. This simulation activity took place in groups of three or four over the span of the semester. The simulation was a coffee house that the group made decisions on. Every week the group makes decisions regarding what should happen at the coffee house‚ i.e. hire/firing employees‚ wages‚ insurance‚ marketing‚ etc. Three days later the results of these decisions are posted and the group sees the results of the decisions they made
