In the mid 90s, the Deloitte & Touche Consulting Group built a Management Flight Simulator in ExtendSim to experiment with different management strategies for internal training sessions.
The model focuses on the relationship between the economic factors of staffing levels, sales effort, competition, employee training, and market research. Control panels were set up within the model for trainees to vary input parameters in business factors such as staffing levels. Using this interface, class participants were able to use a sophisticated model with minimal knowledge of simulation.
