Capstone® is developed by Capsim Inc. Delivery and platform arrangements depend on the program.
Customers want products, but you can only see part of the system. Too little stock loses sales; too much ties up resources. How will your team coordinate while deliveries are still on the way?
Decisions you will explore
Orders and inventory
Lead times and information flow
Coordination across the supply chain
The connection to work
Explore delays, local decisions and the bullwhip effect, then reflect on the value of seeing the whole system.
Operations, logistics and management teams · Group activity
The scope and debrief are tailored to the audience. Delivery details are specified in the program.
Your mission is to build a valuable palace with limited time. You cannot do everything at once. What will you deliver first, and how will feedback shape your next move?
Decisions you will explore
Prioritization
Useful increments in each sprint
Adapting plans through feedback
The connection to work
Try Agile and Scrum ideas through practical choices, then take the reflection back to your own work.

Change leadership
Power & Influence
Lead change when authority alone is not enough.
The business is still profitable, yet change is needed. Who should you approach first, and how will you build support while protecting your credibility?
How fast should you move before the old business fades?
Legacy software still earns revenue, but customers are moving to cloud and SaaS. How will you balance investment, pricing and new capabilities across today’s business and tomorrow’s opportunity?
You manage a hotel that must cut emissions while sustaining performance. With limited resources, will you invest first in energy, food, waste or behavior?
