Frequently Asked Questions
What are leadership simulations?

Leadership simulations give leaders a safe space to practice essential management and strategic decision-making skills without real-world consequences. Participants face realistic scenarios, decision points, and conversations that mirror the challenges of their roles as they compete to lead their teams and organizations to success.



Learn more about the 10 reasons why organizations continue to choose business simulations to develop leadership skills.

What are the benefits of simulation-based training?

Simulations help learners translate theory into practice and build confidence before applying new skills in the workplace, where the stakes are higher. 
This highly experiential and immersive approach allows learners to see the real impact of their decisions and refine their strategies for better results. The competitive and collaborative nature of simulations also drives higher engagement and stronger skill retention compared to more traditional learning methods.

How do business simulations develop leadership skills?

Business simulations develop a range of critical leadership skills, from business and financial acumen to team management, strategic alignment, and decision-making under pressure. They do this by immersing leaders in simulated roles and organizations and presenting them with complex and often time-critical challenges. Leaders must influence peers, exercise their judgement, and manage resources in order to navigate challenges. When combined with skilled facilitation and guided reflection, simulations deepen insight and build leadership confidence and agility that transfer directly to the workplace.

“Abilitie doesn’t have a ‘one-size fits all’ offering. Their ability (pun intended) to adapt to our needs in such a short amount of time highlights the flexible nature of their product design and construct. As a client, that’s a highly valuable attribute of their offering.”
