Hong Kong Management Game



About the Game

Hong Kong Management Game, introduced by The Hong Kong Management Association (HKMA) in 1971, challenges young executives to exercise their best business and management abilities, stretch their limits and develop themselves – while having fun!

Working in teams, via Business Simulation, players use sophisticated computer technology to challenge themselves and outwit each other in genuine business scenarios, applying business knowledge and management skills, and making sound business decisions, such as Product Design, Marketing, Capacity Management, Manpower Planning, Finance and Research Investments.

Benefits to Participants

The Hong Kong Management Game has proved to be an exciting and efficient tool in management training. Benefits of the Competition include:

  • It simulates the real world. Young leaders can relate to the issues raised during the Competition without fear of failure.
  • It reveals how all the constituent parts of a company need to act in unison if the optimum results are to be achieved. It enables young leaders to see the wider strategic picture.
  • It stresses the value of teamwork, and how to encourage the exchange of ideas and experience between members.
  • If resources are to be used most efficiently, teams need to form strategic plans, not take isolated decisions. This involves the ability to foresee the consequences of intended decisions.



Game Rules

  1. Each team consists of four members.
  2. A team can be formed by executives from a real company or by individuals getting together and giving themselves a fictitious company name.
  3. No individual participant may be a member of more than one team.
  4. Each team is required to observe strictly the time schedule. If, for any reason, decisions are not received from a competing team on time, standard decisions as described in the Participants’ Manual will be entered on behalf of the team. If this happens more than once in any one round, the team concerned will be eliminated from the competition without refund of any part of the registration fee.
  5. In registering for the Competition, each team leader understands and undertakes that in the event of his/her team becoming the Hong Kong Champion, the team will represent Hong Kong to play in the Asian Management Game.
  6. In line with the rules of similar competitions in other countries, to maintain a level playing field for all and to avoid unhealthy domination by well-experienced teams against newcomers, it has been decided that no identical teams should win a prize in the Hong Kong Management Game two times in a row.
  7. The decision of the Secretariat is final in all matters relating to the Competition, including acceptance of entries.
