You're the Boss®
Board Game



©1997
2-6 players • Grades 8 and up

You’re the Boss® is an educational board game specifically designed to teach the importance of responsibility, reliability, integrity, and the work ethic. These are vital concepts that are extremely difficult to teach using traditional methods. This simulation game puts players in the role of the boss. In order to win the game, players need reliable and responsible employees, but some of their employees are lacking in these personal qualities. Unreliable, dishonest, and irresponsible employees prevent the player from winning the game.

Although the game is a simulation, the competition is real, and players are forced to make important decisions regarding sales goals, hiring and firing employees, etc.

During the post-game discussion, the teacher acts as a discussion leader, encouraging the students to use their experience in the game to discuss what makes a good employee. The game is designed so that the concepts brought up by the students in the discussion include the personal qualities of reliability, responsibility, integrity, etc. This game is a fun way to get students to think seriously about the importance of these qualities, which are vital for success in school and in life in general. The focus on personal qualities, such as integrity and responsibility, make this game an ideal learning experience for character education while learning about business.
