After having followed the session Innovation Games for Successful Meetings, I didn’t really have the opportunity to start applying, until we had a gathering with our swimming club. In this article I’ll take you step-by-step through a full session start to finish.

The Flow

Elegant experiment

In a previous article, I’ve talked about an elegant experiment from 1962 we’ve re-done.

At the moment of writing this article, we’ve completed 2 dry runs:  One with a small group of students, and one bigger group of agile coaches, managers and scrum masters.
We got plenty of feedback, and improvement is on its way.

Wij kunnen jullie met enige trots meedelen dat onze Innovation Games® training, oefensessies en eerdere Budget Games® voor de Kortrijkse deelgemeentes Aalbeke en Heule zijn vruchten afwerpt! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRnzA1qINjk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn0Mztc53XQ

In case I didn't talk to you before now: Happy new year. I hope 2014 may bring you much learning and collaboration. During our first gamestorming retreat of 2014 we experimented with several different gamestorming techniques:

In this article I want to go a bit deeper into the subject of taking job interviews in order to find the right person for the job. How it is done in some companies today.

Last week was my first Certified Innovation Games for Customer Understanding training out of many to come and what struck me the most from the 2 very interactive and fun days is the broad employability of the games. I was aware of a lot of different uses of the games and used them myself in a lot of different domains, to solve problems or generate insights into different complex problems, but attendees still surprised me with other options.

Tot onze spijt moeten wij meedelen dat we de volledige resultaten van de Budget Games Aalbeke, 20 Juni 2013, nog niet kunnen meedelen. De Kortrijkse verlofperiode speelt ons parten en pas na het zomerverlof zullen de resultaten aan de Aalbeekse burgers meegedeeld worden, gevolgd door een persvoorstelling. Dit zal dan ook samengaan met de vervolgstappen voor de gemeente Aalbeke aan de hand van de verkregen inzichten en feedback. Wij kijken er in ieder geval naar uit!

Back from my honeymoon and one of the first things I noticed was a confirmation that I'll be speaking at the upcoming Innovation Games® Summit in Amsterdam, Netherlands, on September 19th. I'm very happy with this opportunity!
