Business simulations often follow a deductive learning scheme. Example contexts
and interactions are presented on the form of dialogues, which are then practiced.
Interaction rules or patterns are learned, often as formulas, and then practiced intensively.
The role plays then follow and are repeated until the learners are reasonably confident that
they could apply the formulas in comparable contexts in the work place. Such simulations
are often devised to be problem solving exercises crafted to feature common
communication problems encountered by international employees.
