LeadTech
The Problem:
• Traditional teaching methods are limited in teaching and
developing leadership traits. People learn best through
active engagement and practice, not through discussions or
completing assignments.

• Current solutions in the market place offer very short-term
engaging experiences: (LO Intensive Change Management
simulation, Ethics simulation, corporate training, 360
feedback). They are one-time experiences and lack
reinforcement abilities.
Potential Users
End-users

How we validated the problem
• Spoke with Darden Leadership faculty/ Corporate HR

• Reflected on our own LO experiences and identified
potential opportunities for improvement
Leadership Development App
Our solution to the problem
• A mobile app that complements the leadership development effort
through real-life, engaging experiences on the end-user’s phone

How will it tackle current problems:
•

Allow schools, colleges to inject real-life scenarios into the currently theoryheavy leadership curriculum

•

It is designed to run for longer periods than traditional simulations and easily
mirror the Quarter, Semester or Term system

•

Gamification approach makes it highly engaging and more prone to daily use

•

It will introduce a competitive/collaborative component into the exercise via
multi-player options

•

Solution will allow for peer feedback, instructor assessment of student
performance & a rewards/penalty management system

•

It will feature multiple, rich leadership themes using familiar simulation
characters
HR Departments
Current System
• Formal Classroom Setting

• Add-ons: assessments, 360 feedback etc.

Downside
