The formation of a new team of persons coming from different business areas, and even from other organisations, to take on a far-reaching project resulted in the need to develop a training program that would create a propitious environment for interpersonal knowledge and promote teamwork. But above all, it was necessary to clearly show the challenges and problems that we faced, which is the most novel aspect with respect to a training action. The experience with the Equilibrium Cone was simultaneously gratifying and successful, given that it combined fun aspects (games and simulators) and operational aspects (specific work projects) that satisfied the objectives of both cohesion and efficiency, respectively.

SIMULATION & GAMING Participants retain as much as 75% of the information obtained, because they 束listen, see, ask and act損 Simulation and games, used as learning devices, facilitate the gathering of knowledge in a variety of scientific disciplines, making complex realities easier to understand and combining inter-related focuses. They help understand dynamic contexts and are thus ideal for the acquisition of systematic skills. Experimentation through games and simulation enables knowledge to be integrated and automated and is particularly useful when applied to improving abilities and even in transforming attitudes, something difficult to attain using other methods. The game plays upon the more excitable nature of the participant and uses it as a training tool. The game influences attitudes, improves relationships, encourages cohesion and team spirit and generates link networks among the participants, creating affective bonds between The experiential learning cycle of Kurt Z.

For the same reason, play can also be useful, on occasions, in overcoming the self-induced block out produced by the fear that certain training situations bring out in us. Training Games 2

I met Ricardo Zamora a few years ago. He presented a teamwork project to us that we were going to love. The truth is that, due to being novel and atypical, I have to confess, when the presentation was over my initial idea was to forget about it. However, we tossed the idea around and decided to send an elite group to take the training. It was a huge success, a total innovation within our training system, and the most wonderful thing is that the team had a good time and acknowledged having learned about subjects as important as communication, teamwork, work systems, etc. Over the last three years, our entire team of managers and middle managers has gone through this training, with excellent results when applying the acquired knowledge in their usual jobs.

Participating in SYNERGY was an intellectual challenge for me due to the different way of facing a known subject. The idea of breaking with schemes and not being anchored in traditional ones is perfectly clear. Learning to dominate my natural leadership in order to adapt it to good teamwork was another good practice.

RICARDO ZAMORA 15 years of experience on teamwork and collaboration Ricardo Zamora is Bachelor of Science in Business and a Masters in Business Management from ESADE, one of the top 10 European and International Business Schools (see at www.esade.edu). He is Associate in the Advanced Management Program at ESADE Executive Education as well as other School of Business and at some Latin American Universities.

The creator of simulators such as Salesmanship, Carterbanc and Synergy, as well as games such as Teaching Cards, Fork, The 5 phases of the sale and Linker. Zamora has specialized in the development of systemic competences and applies his programs in large corporations with complex interrelationships. He is the creator of Synergy, an attended seminar that, for two days, submerges the participants in a situation of growing complexity, uncertainty and change. Using the behavior simulator developed by Zamora, Synergy covers a dual analysis of complementary aspects personal and business- when promoting a culture of distributed leadership and teamwork at organizations. Based on the management behaviours showed in Synergy that systematically appears when facing uncertain and complex environments, he has developed Cooplexity (cooperation under complexity), a very robust and academically consistent model. He has published a book of the same name with the results of a 5 years research on the issue. Large and multinational companies such as Dannon, Heineken, Unilever, HP, Arbora & Ausonia (Procter), Lafarge or Santander Banking Group are some of Zamoras customers. 5 Training Games
