Here’s What People Are Saying about Us:
What happened over those 2 days [of training] was amazing – we took real world problems that Luke encountered (with the names changed to protect the guilty!) and applied Innovation Games to solve them. It was less about learning the games but more about learning to solve a problem with gaming.
- Paul Dunay, Global Managing Director of Services and Social Marketing, Avaya
If you don’t know much about Innovation Games®, I highly recommend you read the book and/or take the class. I believe that these games will enable a high level of collaboration between business and IT, and will help huge strides towards designing software applications with a user-centered design. comments on her experience taking the class and details how Innovation Games can be used to help you decide what to build here.
- Anu Ramaswamy, Agile Product Management consultant
This is a shameless plug for Innovation Games. Shameless that it might be, it is grounded in the hands-on experience I acquired as a participant in Luke Hohmann’s workshop on the subject. While Innovation Games had been conceived, implemented and published by Luke more than 5 years ago, the contemporary online implementation breaks new ground.
- Israel Gat, Director of Cutter Consortium’s Agile Product & Project Management practice
Innovation Games are such a fun, but serious, way to help set product direction. I love that the games are about people; added to our quantitative tool sets, Innovation Games give a robust meaning to “what do our customers really want?”
- Stacia Viscardi, Agile Evolution
