Hello, I've been off the list for quite some time so maybe a brief
introduction is in order. My name is Randy Mithoefer. I work at the
College for Lifelong Learning, New Hampshire, USA as a training
coordinator for the Center for Organizational and Professional
Development. Say that quickly twice! As a coordinator I work with
organizations to help them develop learning programs for their employees.
Much of my work involves consulting in areas of organizational change,
learning environments, and personal development.

Now for my request - I need a simulation that can be used with mid-level
managers of a manufacturing company which focuses on cross-departmental
communication. I have heard of the "Beer Game" but do not details of the
simulation. Would this simulation be appropriate, or is there other
simulations which would work better?

Please respond to me directly at R_MITHOEFER@UNHF.UNH.EDU or by phone at
603-627-2010. Thank you in advance for your help.

Host's Note: The Beer Game is described quite thoroughly in an early
chapter of The Fifth Discipline.
