What if you could simulate a competitive battle without firing a single shot? Business War Games is a strategic framework that lets organizations test their plans against realistic competition.
Key Components
Used when major decisions are on the table, it helps uncover hidden risks and opportunities by thinking like an opponent. The model is visual, showing three key layers: the competitor’s mindset, their likely moves, and your best responses.
How to Apply
