The Barometer Games
The Barometer concept is about reaching 2 goals - a business goal of reaching results and a climate goal of ensuring a good working environment.
The game challenges the preferences and skills of the players through a series of carefully designed scenarios.
The Barometer game is intended for both new and more experienced managers and can be set up to match the specific challenges that different groups of participants have to deal with, as well as their positions within the organisation.
In a dynamic process of experimenting with know-how, roles, needs and qualifications, players have to make decisions that shed light on their leadership and management skills.
The practical work is combined with a theoretical foundation and the intended end result is a coherent personal profile. The tool helps develop the management skills of each participant, and it boosts their awareness of their own practices catalysing critical reflections.
The Barometer game is a unique reflection tool that clearly highlights the skills and general approaches that distinguishes the individuals' strength and weaknesses.
The Barometer: Your Simulation for Real-World Decision-Making
Just as pilots train for thousands of hours in a flight simulator before flying with real passengers, you can use The Barometer as your own training ground.
In The Barometer, you'll face various challenges:
- Navigate through fictional storms.
- Manage communication with control towers.
- Stay on course amidst disruptions.
- And tackle many other scenarios that test your decision-making under pressure.
This is your space to make mistakes—to crash, miscommunicate, or choose the wrong path—because with every failure, you gain valuable wisdom and experience.
What You’ll Learn
The Barometer game scenarios are designed to provide deep insights into how different actions impact employees in various situations. No single approach fits all situations—it's up to you to learn when to act and how to act.
These scenarios reflect real workplace dilemmas, offering you the chance to recognize and reflect on your own decisions. More importantly, they can spark essential conversations within your team about how you want to operate in the future.
