Digital transformation is about tools and technology, but it is even more about a successful change management process within the organization. This journey needs to engage every contributor within the organization in order to foster and drive a mindset of agility, ownership, innovation, performance, and success. Gamification, and especially business simulations, can facilitate that process of engaging minds and souls to define your digital transformation strategy and roadmap, and execute it successfully.

In this session we will demonstrate and explore tools, best practices, and examples on how gamification and business simulations can help an organization to master that digital transformation process. Through the real-life experience gamification and especially simulations provide, you can identify the key focus area  for development and foster the desired behavior sustainably and measurably.

In this session you will see, touch, feel, experience, and explore gamification tools and techniques, games, and business simulations through the lens of examples, best practices, and case studies on how we have successfully accompanied organizations in their digital transformation journeys. We will show you how we used the principles of game design to foster the “right” mindset in the organization, starting with setting the right priorities and steps to deal with digital transformation and disruptions. 

A successful digital transformation journey starts with definitions, fostering knowledge and wisdom to assure that everyone is aligned behind the same definitions and understanding. So we will start there, and engage you in a conversation on how technology can help you drive that knowledge and understanding and tap into the collective intelligence and experience within your company. We then take you through the journey of creating a digital roadmap—which is unique for each organization but follows the same guided process—and show you key ideas and tools to work around the typical issues with a change management process. You will leave this session with inspiration, ideas, and insights on how you can make every contributor within your organization feel valued and recognized as a unique and important link in the value creation chain and engaged to transform processes for higher performance and sustainable growth.
