Flagship programme Strategy and planning Resource management Classroom for 30

Pit Wall: Strategy and Resource Management Training on a Racing Simulator

Teams become racing teams: they decide on a fixed budget, read the data, plan — and rebuild the plan when the race takes an unexpected turn.

Pit Wall is our flagship programme that turns the racing simulator from an entertainment experience into strategy, planning and resource management training. Participants run a racing team in groups; the winner is not just the fastest driver but the team that uses its resources best and adapts best when the plan breaks. The programme runs with one facilitator and up to 30 people in a meeting room for 3–4 hours; our team handles the simulator set-up.

What is racing simulator strategy training like?

Short answer: Each group is a racing team with different roles and a limited budget. A plan is made before the race, unexpected things happen during it, and plan and actual are compared afterwards. The team making calls on the pit wall shapes the result as much as the person behind the wheel.

Why racing?

In motorsport, results depend on strategy, budget, data and team coordination as much as speed. That is very close to a company’s daily reality: resources are limited, competitors are moving, conditions change and waiting is rarely an option. The simulator recreates that reality in a safe, measurable setting.

What is learned?

  • Prioritising a limited budget by impact.
  • Collecting data before planning and deciding on it.
  • Clarifying roles: who decides, who executes, who reads the data?
  • Rebuilding the plan when something unexpected happens, without abandoning it.
  • Comparing plan and actual and taking the lesson back to work.

Who is it for?

Leadership teams, project and operations teams, sales and business development, teams preparing for annual planning. If you want the simulator purely as an event, see our F1 and rally simulation experience; to combine strategic thinking with other programmes, our strategic thinking and planning training is a good starting point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do participants need driving experience?
No. The driver role is voluntary and anyone can drive after a short practice; other team members take strategy, data and budget roles. The result depends on the team’s decisions, not just driving.
How many simulators are needed?
The number of simulators is planned around group size and duration. Drivers take turns; the rest of the team plans and analyses in the meantime.
How long is it and for how many people?
3–4 hours in a meeting room; the standard group is one facilitator and up to 30 people. Larger groups run parallel races.
Where can it be run?
An office, a hotel meeting room or any indoor space with power and enough room. Our team handles set-up and take-down.
How does it differ from the F1 simulation experience?
The experience event is about fun and competition. Pit Wall is a training programme: it includes roles, a budget, planning and a debrief, and closes with a measurement report.
How is the impact measured?
A short self-assessment on prioritisation, use of resources, adapting to plan changes and coordination is taken at the start and end; team-level results are reported to HR.
