Abstract: As key areas in business administration, Management and the related subjects (as, for example, Logistics or Human Resources Management) are permanently evolving due to the new technologies and to the new economic environments so the training methods and techniques for those must evolve as well. The practical issues as case studies and problems to be solved are effective tools and their usage helps a lot, but the touch of reality is best felt by playing Management. Enterprise games and simulations are far more effective in practical training and much better for proper understanding of management techniques and that was proved long ago both in the best business schools around the world and in the Bucharest University of Economic Studies (ASE). The research briefed in this paper focused on identifying efficient ways to create a new generation of management games based on the specifications of different categories of people involved in teaching and learning of Management at graduate and master level, using on one side the experience and knowledge accumulated inside ASE and on the other side the latest achievements of the other Research Institutes and Universities.
