Game for Solutions Workshop
Ignite collaboration, elevate engagement, strengthen cohesion and have some serious fun.
❌ Feel overwhelmed by challenges. You need a fun way to get practical solutions.
❌ Are excited by opportunities but don’t know where to start. You need a breakthrough process to get moving.
❌ Are worried about wasting people’s time and effort. You must leave with real actions you can implement.
Jacinta’s Game for Solutions Workshop will help. Let’s talk about doing one with your organisation:
Game for Solutions:
✔ Builds trust fast
✔ Gets a large group collaborating
✔ Overcomes power imbalance
✔ Gets the whole group on board to solve problems
✔ Makes problem-solving fun
✔ Transforms group dynamics
✔ Harnesses the collective power of a group
✔ Cultivates cohesion
✔ Energises and inspires and leave people with practical solutions they can implement
All groups need innovation, when they are forming, formed and changing.
Game for Solutions is a highly innovative activity that guarantees high engagement and outcomes for any group, project or team.
Game for Solutions is a structured and dynamic activity that helps groups of people generate their own solutions to challenges and ideas for opportunities.
When teams collaborate on real challenges, creativity sparks.
Healthy competition increases a team’s motivation to achieve and win the game.
The mix of the urge to 'win' and working together creates urgency, fuels adrenalin and gives a team a laser-focused concentration on the task.
Result:
- 10 problems and you'll get 30 potential solutions to play with.
- 20 problems, you’ll get 60 to explore.
The workshop is for 10 to 40 people. It is scalable for larger groups and a co-facilitator is needed.
❏ To help your people to collaborate fast.
❏ To empower your people to come up with solutions to real-world challenges and opportunities.
❏ To build trust and strengthen cohesion in your team.
❏ You do not believe in the collective wisdom of groups.
❏ Think games with groups cannot be productive.
