GLO-BUS is a completely online exercise where teams of students run companies that are in a neck-and-neck race for global market leadership in two product categories: 1 wearable video cameras and 2 sophisticated camera-equipped copter drones. The companies compete in a global market arena, selling to buyers in four geographic regions—Europe-Africa, North America, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. The challenge is to craft and execute a competitive strategy that results in a respected brand image, keeps your company in contention for global market leadership, and produces good financial performance as measured by earnings per share, return on investment, stock price appreciation, and credit rating.
All aspects of the GLO-BUS simulation parallel the functioning of the real-world markets, thus allowing you and your co-managers to 1 think rationally and logically in deciding what to do and 2 get valuable practice in making a variety of different business decisions under circumstances that mirror real-world competitive conditions.
You must register in order to make decisions for your company, review the results and reports, take the accompanying online quizzes, and do the online peer evaluations; registration is also essential for your log-ins, quiz scores, strategic plan grade, and peer evaluations to be recorded and reported to your instructor for evaluation and grading.
Registration ensures that your work will be reported to your instructor or game administrator for evaluation and grading. Your registration is valid until the course you are enrolled in is over. Built-in Help screens and Video Tutorials walk you through the decisions. A series of reports convey complete results for each decision period; these come with detailed descriptions of the numbers and graphics contained in the reports and how to use them.
Only registered participants can log-in to make decisions, review results, take the online quizzes, do peer evaluations, receive instructor e-mails generated within the GLO-BUS software, and have their work evaluated and graded by the course instructor or game administrator. There are also occasions when all company co-managers will want to be online simultaneously at their own PCs.
This online edition of GLO-BUS automatically records and reports your quiz scores, your peer evaluations of co-managers, and your log-ins to your instructor. GLO-BUS is a hands-on learning exercise that draws together the information and lessons of prior courses, consolidates your knowledge about the different aspects of running a company, builds your confidence in analyzing the revenue-cost-profit economics of a business, helps you understand how the functional pieces of a business fit together, provides valuable practice in crafting profitable growth strategies, sharpens your business judgment, and provides a capstone for your business school education.
Team members running the same company can use the integrated on-screen text chat feature, the integrated VoIP Audio Mode feature, or a phone to collaborate when working online at the same time from different locations—the built-in features make the simulation ideal for distance learning courses and also facilitates co-manager collaboration when working from different locations.
All this, along with the Collaboration Mode and Audio Mode features, facilitates coordinating decision entries when co-managers are simultaneously online at different locations.
