I found it interesting to learn that the participants in the

forum are discussing the Global Management Challenge as the
championship for strategic and business management. Models are
used to create a representation of the market within which all the
teams compete. The depth of managerial decisions is assessed by a
computer and the complexity of interactions require detailed
examination to fully comprehend. “
