Has anyone played the Quality Board Game?
thequalitygame . com/pages/1/index.htm
Here's the link. Has anyone tried this game for teaching people problem-solving? Is it worth $395?

 I get a good laugh out of this kind of stuff.
It never ceases to amaze me regarding, people actually believing that this stuff is a communicative tool.
Hey, if you have failed to communicate quality by all other means, try the game: sounds cheesy doesn't it?

Is does sound a bit cheesy, but I was actually thinking about using it in an academic setting with undergrad students, many of whom have never set foot inside a manufacturing plant. I think they think the stuff on the shelves at the stores magically appears "in the back" and someone puts it on the shelf so it can be bought. When I show them pictures of plastic injection molding equipment, I get the strangest looks and tons of questions. Who ever thought stuff got 'made by a process'??
BTW, the maker of the game lives in HI. Now that ain't so tough, especially since I am still waiting for WI to decide to have spring!

Not in my opinion.
