- Description: This note is a practical guide to what role playing is and how to do it on trade union courses. 'Role playing' is not just a method of education: it is something you do every day. One minute, you're a parent , seeing the kids off to school. Then you're off to work, and you're a driver, passenger, or pedestrian. Go to the branch meeting and you are a union activist. So in your daily life you take on a number of different roles, and get used to switching between them. Used properly, role plays can help you to run a lively, active, arid effective course. Role playing involves everyone, helps them to develop skills, and gives them practice in applying Information to problems. Because your course is a 'safe' environment where you do not pay a price for making n ml stake, a role play can give people confidence in trying out new ideas. So you could try to get participants to Improve the way they run union meetings; talk to members, management, or journal lets; or work on a negotiating team.

- Authors: Pieterse, Koot
- Subjects: Business incubators , Entrepreneurship , f-sa
- Language: English
- Type: text , Lectures

- Description: Innovation implies the generation as well as the practical implementation of new ideas. These ideas could appear as new product opportunities, new markets or new management systems and business schools are ideally situated to promote their exploitation and implementation. This study emphasises the need for business schools to elevate innovation to one of the core values in their mission. The need for innovation in the local business environment is explored along with reasons why these opportunities have not always been pursued with the required vigour. The results of a literature study are represented, that demonstrate what initiatives on the incorporation of innovation into their activities have been taken by a selection of business schools around the world and the study is concluded by exploring similar opportunities open to the Business School of the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University.
