Live Action Role Playing – LARP

Oh no...
Your phone rings, and you hear the urgent voice of a friend:
„Good to finally reach you! You know all about company succession, don't you?
There’s an emergency! Horst Moritz has had a heart attack. You know, the head of Moritz GmbH – the steel construction company. He’s in the hospital now, and everything at the company is going haywire if something isn't sorted out soon. Without Horst, it’s a real challenge. Perhaps the succession should also be organized now so that the company continues to run smoothly. The family is desperately looking for expert advice - can you help?“
Learning Through Real-Life Scenarios
And just like that, you’re in the middle of it!
When strategic decisions like succession planning need to be made in family businesses, a family conference is often held to discuss everything that needs to be arranged. On this website, you’ll find a guide and all the materials required to stage and experience such a family conference as a Live Action Role-Play (LARP).
What’s in it for you? Depending on your background, you can gain insights into how business succession works and what strategic decisions need to be made. Thinking about becoming self- employed and starting your own company? Why not consider taking over an existing business instead of starting from scratch? After all, you don’t always have to reinvent the wheel to become an entrepreneur. With you, the company gets a fresh perspective and new opportunities.
