Navigate Corporate Politics, Align Competing Priorities, Deliver Results

Product wants speed. Finance demands cost control. Marketing needs flexibility. You need results. This intensive simulation puts you at the center of organizational tension, teaching you to negotiate competing priorities and coordinate effectively across departments.

Experience the reality of cross-functional leadership through authentic scenarios: budget cuts affecting shared goals, last-minute product changes disrupting marketing campaigns, and conflicting KPIs creating internal competition. Learn to mediate between department heads, create win-win proposals, and build long-term trust with peer managers who have different incentives.

You’ll master the art of speaking each department’s language, ROI with Finance, user impact with Product, brand alignment with Marketing, while maintaining your team’s objectives. 

Develop skills in stakeholder alignment, resource negotiation, and conflict resolution that turn organizational complexity into competitive advantage.
