About the Book
Gamestorming from XPLANE on Vimeo.
Everyone talks about innovation but nobody really knows how to innovate. By employing simple frameworks such as players, boundaries, and goals, Gamestorming turns simple office supplies like sticky notes and index cards into a powerful platform for changing the game of business. Gamestorming is a proven approach to real-life, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-your-hands-dirty innovation. The authors of Gamestorming have spent over twenty years identifying, cataloguing and practicing the techniques that leading teams – from startups to global giants – use to collaborate, communicate and make the right things happen at work. Whether you’re a startup with a hunger to change the world or an intrapreneur at a big company who wants to change the game from within, this book offers a clearly-defined approach to breaking down barriers, communicating effectively and generating breakthrough strategies. Richly illustrated with 100 images and more than 80 business games, Gamestorming is for people who want to learn how serious “play” can be.
And for more information, the video above describes the essence of our work in the book, Gamestorming: A Playbook for Innovators, Rulebreakers and Changemakers. The visual meeting techniques within are about doing what comes naturally to all of us: exploring, discovering, and reorganizing knowledge so we can make something better, at work and in the world. Take three minutes to watch it and then do yourself a favor and re-learn how to solve problems at the office. And tell us about your experiences at gogamestorm.com.
