Preparing your kids for future jobs with games

SXSW interactive just finished up here in Austin.  SXSW is a large music/film/interative conference that brings the best and brightest to Austin.  The interactive  conference itself brings technologiest, internet marketers, and culturists together to discuss how online activities are changing politics, science, entertainment, etc.

It isn’t uncommon there to find that the CEO, CTO, CFO, or other prominently placed executive actively plays games online.  Is it possible that the game you picked up for your child at Christmas has virtually introduced them to a future manager?  Is your child’s behavior in game going to impress them with level-headed thinking, clear communications, and organizational leadership?

Take a moment to look at these two articles:

The business lessons of “World of Warcaft” from News. com

Is World of Warcraft the New Golf? from 1UP.com
