Dan Sauers
I first adopted GLO-BUS for use in our capstone Strategic Management course at Winona State in the Winter Semester of 2004. If I recall correctly, I was one of the first adopters of this simulation. To date, I have established 17 GLO-BUS industries. In the Fall Semester of 2005, I served as the instructor for the team that topped the Overall Game-to-Date World Rankings with a score of 110 in Year 15.
