IntroductionThe Everest Group Simulation was an exercise that required five students to immerse themselves in a team of trekkers. Each role is unique and vital to the team's survival in their attempt to reach the summit of Mount Everest. The simulation effectively summarized the concepts and theories learned during the course. The purpose of this report is to reflect on the experiences encountered during the Everest simulation and to identify how these experiences affected our decisions and relate to the course. The report includes a description and analysis of the Everest group simulation, a critical analysis of the team's performance and results, and a critical analysis of the team's communication interactions. Students were required to apply the concepts and theories taught in this course, involving teamwork, leadership. and decision-making regarding the Everest Team experience. The simulation allowed students to put into practice all the theory taught at the university and learn from their direct experience. Description and analysis of the Everest team experienceOn April 14, I was added to our group WhatsApp “Everest”, and there we managed to organize a time when we are all available to launch the simulation. Later, I found out that I was the marathon runner of team 202, consisting of Shubhra the team leader, Hamna the team doctor, Jia Yee the photographer, Sherry the environmentalist and Lianne the observer . This triggers the initial phase of the “formation” stage which is characterized by people joining the group (Maples, 1988). On April 15, we agreed to start the simulation at 9 p.m. However, due to a slight communication and time management problem (Penley et al, 1991), we had to delay it until 9:30 p.m. Finally, we arrived at the middle of paper......ing teams to communicate more effectively.ConclusionThe Everest team simulation was a valuable experience that taught me how to apply the basics of the management course in business situations. real and first-hand team. A team's success and performance depend on its initial stage of development as well as its structure. A team with an established team structure and maturity during the various stages of group development has proven to be extremely effective. Decision-making and conflict resolution techniques also influence a team's overall performance. Ultimately, effective communication is the key to success when working as a team. On the other hand, ineffective communication can lead to the downfall of the team. The simulation exercise was a solid example of group work situations and provides valuable first-hand experience..
