Bioteams readers might be interested to know that I have just launched Cohort - an Online Change Management Game which challenges players to explore different strategies to gain the support of a group of senior executives for a major change initiative. The game is designed to be used in leadership development workshops with up to 20 participants playing competitively in teams.

The executives to be influenced can either be within your own organisation or they can be the decision-makers in an external customer organisation you are endeavouring to sell some change proposition to.The game comes preloaded with a set of executive positions and a specific change scenario.

Three of the most powerful features of the game include:

1. Customisation: you can easily brand and customise the game to you own methodology and knowledge of change management. You can also totally customise the change scenario and the executive profiles


2. Live Executives: certain executives can be nominated as live which means their interactions (and impacts) need to be role-played with a facilitator


3. Executive Influence: when an executive changes their attitude (up or down) this immediately impacts the other executives depending on the first executive's seniority, social connectedness and reputation.

You can download a 1-page factsheet on cohort or get in touch with me directly to find out more.
