Barnga: A Simulation Game on Cultural Clashes

Help your employees understand what unites them together.and what makes them unique! BARNGA is the classic simulation game on cultural clashes. Participants experience the shock of realizing that despite their good intentions and the many similarities among them, people interpret things differently from one another in profound ways, especially people from differing cultures. Players learn that they must understand and reconcile these differences if they want to function effectively in a cross-cultural group.Revised and expanded for its 25th anniversary, BARNGA's new features and enhancements include: * New rules allow for games with as few as two players. * Partnership play permitted, enabling reflection on the impact of moral support from others. * Redesigned handouts reinforce the idea that everyone is playing by the same rules. * Different tournament formats raise new types of communication problems. * Expanded debriefing section.BARNGA is an ingenious way for people to learn more about the cultures of those with whom they work-and maybe even a little about their own.
