Business game "The Big Catch"
"The Big Catch" is a strategic team-based game that teaches participants to pursue both personal success and collective benefit. At its core are win-win strategy, environmental responsibility, and effective collaboration.
Legend:
Imagine living in a fishing village on the shores of a vast lake. Your team runs a fishing enterprise striving for prosperity — you need income to grow. But you're not alone — neighboring villages share the same goal. The lake’s fish population, however, is finite. If everyone acts selfishly, the fish will be gone. Can you strike a balance between your team’s needs and preserving the resource for all?
Game Format:
The game is played in rounds. During each round, participants::
– implement their fishing and trading strategies;
