Looking Glass, Inc. Volume V. Outside Information Notebook. Operational Manual,

Abstract

Looking Glass is a simulation of a glass manufacturing corporation. There are twenty positons, ranging across three divisions, ranging across three divisions and four levels (Plant Manager, Director, Vice-President, and President). The divisions face different environments, ranging from volatile to stable. Looking Glass is, in a word, typical--the organizational type, structure and environments are common. All problems contained in the simulation are based on actual events. Volume V contains standarized responses to the most commonly asked questions during runs of Looking Glass. The responses are organized by division, and include responses for corporate level problems. Guidelines and procedures for the simulation controller explain how to respond to requests and how to record the responses.
