Working Capital Challenge: a serious game about working capital
Working capital is the lifeblood of any organisation. Yet few employees outside the finance department truly understand what it means, let alone how their day-to-day decisions regarding stock levels, payment terms or order planning affect cash flow.
The Working Capital Challenge changes all that. Teams experience for themselves how working capital works and how they influence it: not through a slideshow, but by getting hands-on.

What is the Working Capital Challenge?
The Working Capital Challenge is a physical serious business game: a board game developed by Wakaaro in collaboration with Financial Media. The game simulates the financial dynamics of a business and presents participants with practical decisions: how much stock should you hold? When should you pay your suppliers? How does extending payment terms for customers affect your cash flow?
By experiencing the consequences of those choices for themselves and seeing what goes wrong if they get it wrong, participants intuitively learn what working capital means for their organisation and what impact they have on it. Every game is different and can therefore be played multiple times.
