Research aims to test the link between ease of use, sanity of the simulation and the perceived level of Negotiation and Conflict during Simulation and their effect on learning and performance. Research Methodology One hundred fifty seven students of management discipline were divided in twenty six teams of six members each and the end of the simulation; learners were examined through surveys about their perception of different aspects of the simulation experience Findings The study has given indication that both the sanity and user interface or physical architecture of the simulation is vital features to consider before selection of a simulation. Instructor’s role is very crucial in by constructively guiding and facilitating the participants on the profits of strong and vigorous debates of subject matter before making their judgments and in the debriefing sessions. Research Limitations Research captures perceptions at a specific cross sectional time. Research measures the overall cumulative performance of each participating teams though balance scorecard approach rather than on interval. Role of team characteristics and role of instructor was excluded in research design. Originality/Value Preparedness of management students with Simulation training is of importance to business organizations and B-schools since simulations permit learners to solve real-world problems, and it offers an opportunity to discover recently attained skills without risk. The research will increase our understanding of the dynamics that define the effectiveness of management simulations and determine the effect of these dynamics on individual learning and team performance.
