\u201cI chose to participate in the Capsim Challenge in order to have a better understanding of how the real world could be in terms of running an operating my own company. <\/span>It helped increase my business knowledge by teaching me about how volatile and quick to change an industry can be, and how to deal with any changes and make decisions under all conditions.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\nProfessor Fraser said the Capsim Challenge represented: <\/span><\/p>\n\u201cAnother opportunity for students to practice their skills and grow as future managers. It also allows them to benchmark against great students from all over the world and to grow in confidence. Trinidad and Tobago has a population of 1.3 million so it\u2019s not often we get to compete on the international stage.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nProfessor Fraser said simulations taught students the challenge of running an overall business. \u201cIn many management programmes students learn \u201cabout\u201d management,\u201d he said. \u201cCapsim allows them to get a sense of what it feels like to actually manage an enterprise where you have to live with the consequences of your decisions.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\nDuring a semester of disruption in a world gripped by pandemic, lockdowns and restrictions, Ansaar Ali from the University of the West Indies has demonstrated his capacity to succeed under pressure, and to make sound business decisions in the midst of uncertainty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nAnsaar <\/span>plans to graduate in Management Studies this year. We congratulate Ansaar on this achievement.<\/p>\nThe Capsim Challenge is open to students across the globe who have used a Capsim simulation in the previous 12 months. It is an opportunity to pit their skills against their peers in a high pressure, dynamic management tournament.<\/span>All past winners are listed in the Capsim Hall of Fame at http:\/\/www.capsim.com\/events\/challenge\/#\/hof.<\/span><\/p>\nLearn about Capsim Management Simulations, Inc.<\/span> www.capsim.com for more <\/span>information and a complete list of past winners of the Capsim Challenge.<\/span><\/p>\nContact:<\/span>
