Restructuring of our strategy class

  • 1.  Restructuring of our strategy class

    Greetings,

    We are considering restructuring our approach to teaching strategy.  We now have a junior level class that reviews the fundamentals (ratios, financial statements, etc.) leading into our senior level strategy class that includes the Business Strategy Game.  One question into which I ran was the use of the Business Strategy Game –type simulations (Capsim or others as well).  Has anyone ever tried to do the game with Juniors?  Finally, where can I find the research on the pros and cons of teaching strategy formulation and strategy implementation in the same course rather than sequentially?  Thank you...
