Improve Management Skills - Play Video Games

Technology has advanced at a rapid rate during the last twenty years

. New technologies have created new ways of living with more technological possibilities than ever before. One possibility was the video game market, which has now grown to the stage where people are playing all over the world. The market for video games is continually expanding with many games now reaching similar revenues to that of top Hollywood films.

The extent to which these technologies have prepared and disciplined users for the work organisation would appear at first to be very little as it would be assumed just a game. However there could be many similarities which have helped people improve organisational and management skills.

Many video games are another persons reality. The example of the football manager series, can be seen as a direct example of the presence of management and organisation in a video game. This allows users to control, direct and instruct a football team as if it were there job to do so. Football Manager is one of many simulations, others including Roller coaster Tycoon, Sim City, Medal of Honor, all being real life occupations which many people desire due to the market size for these simulation games. It is common however that these players do not choose to try and follow this career path.

Many people criticize the fact that you would often be playing video games in worlds that you don't work in on a daily basis. They say that even though you might pick up some skills from the games, that it would be very difficult to implement them when you get back into real life. I must disagree with this as you have actually trained your brain to solve problems and think in whole new ways, which can only benefit you in our ever-changing world.

Regardless of where you work you would always have to complete tasks or projects. For the company to grow and prosper, these should be complete as quickly and efficiently as possible. If you don't do it, then the company suffers or close their doors eventually. In video games things work exactly the same. You constantly have targets, gaols, missions and other things you aim for. If you succeed you will be able to progress in the game, exactly as in real life.
