"Angry Boss!" now delivers value 3 ways - as an entertaining & challenging business simulation game, as your gateway to the secrets of Robust Production Management (RPM), and as your personal fast track to RPM certification!

FIRST... "Angry Boss!" progresses over the course of a (GREATLY compressed) 1-year period, as various internal and external business events occur. Sometimes these events have a positive impact on the business operation, while some events have a negative impact on the operation. Still other events have virtually no impact on the operation at all. Your challenge is to assess the type & magnitude of each event as they hit, and take timely & appropriate action (via the Hire, De-Crew, Train & Manage buttons) to keep operating unit costs as low as possible - thus enabling the company to remain profitable. A unit cost indicator bar shows players how their decisions & actions affect operating costs. All the while, the boss offers comments of support, encouragement &... well... his own special brand of "coaching." There are 3 separate operating scenarios - under each, players start out as supervisors and work their way up to CEO, level by level.

SECOND... "Angry Boss!" now provides access to all 13 Robust Production Management (RPM) modules - just check out the apps RPM button (bottom of the games Welcome page). These are the same concepts and tools Metrilogics uses to deliver bottom-line process improvement results for clients - everywhere, every time. RPM modules include:

• Module 1: Performance Culture
• Module 2: Performance Framework
• Module 3: Complex Planning Calculations
• Module 4: Time Studies
• Module 5: Staffing Models
• Module 6: Unit Costs
• Module 7: Resource Alignment Matrix
• Module 8: Performance Distribution
• Module 9: Measuring Before and After Savings
• Module 10: Small Warehouse Case Study
• Module 11: Large Insurance Dept. Case Study
• Module 12: Selecting Viable Project Candidates
• Module 13: Deriving Project Financial Value

THIRD... and best of all... you can now get CERTIFIED as an RPM practitioner directly through the app. Simply acquire all RPM modules thru the apps RPM button, then click on the "Get RPM Certificate" button at the top of the RPM page. Follow the prompts to receive your own personalized, dated and serial-numbered RPM certificate in your email In Box. No classes... no exams... no kidding!

"Angry Boss!" is the single app that lets you have fun while sharpening your management skills, and helps you build your portfolio of certifications.

Latest reviews of Angry Boss! app for iPhone and iPad

Useless game
This game is a complete waste of money - no fun, doesnt make any sense.
A little confused.
The concept seemed sound, but its all happening so fast and it didnt really understand how to play.
Dont waste your money
For free maybe, but the game isnt very well thought out and the app is really designed to get you to buy their management modules. It appears to be a project left over from an MBA program. Contacted the company, response was good, but no desire to fix the game any time soon.
