Role-playing: Corporate Social Responsibility

Tim Fort Law, History, and Communication

Island Telecom is a role-playing simulation game developed by Tim Fort to promote learning and discussion about issues of socially responsible globalization. Fort's students play the roles of companies trying to balance the demands of creating a profitable business with various other opportunities for socially responsible corporate actions. Companies bid against each other for government contracts while navigating complex tradeoffs related to outsourcing, corruption, environmental health and safety, gender equity, social justice and cultural sensitivity.
Fort has used this simulation with classes of undergraduate students, MBA's, and Executive MBA's.
