Help your project team get it right from the start! This engaging, competitive simulation challenges teams of participants to run a critical internal project, creating the highest possible business value - on time and budget. In just one day, participants run a simulated project through the pre-study, design, development and implementation phases, and learn to deal with unexpected events and changing project conditions - just as in real life. It's a great way to kick-off a new project, jump-start a stagnant one, build team relations, and provide critical insight for everybody involved - regardless of previous project experience.

The success of a project is often determined by the skills and commitment of the people involved, they need to see the big picture and understand how to contribute to the project objectives.

Celemi Cayenne™ helps people be better prepared to deal with unexpected events and changing project conditions. During the simulation, teams of 3-4 people monitor and manage a project. The participants are challenged by problems and events in the different project phases. They decide how to best use limited resources to achieve their objectives. The performance of the teams is monitored on a range of key performance measures. There are discussions connecting to the participants’ reality throughout the simulation. Using limited resources to reach the highest business-value possible.

After the simulation, the participants discuss their own projects. They prepare themselves and assess their project conditions in terms of leadership, alignment, teamwork and strategy etc. Cayenne is intended for all types of companies across all industries. It involves all project members as well as stakeholders and can be used to kick-start a project with great results. System suppliers and consultants can create successful joint projects using Cayenne. It is also ideal for corporate universities and other training organizations.
