Do games have their rightful place in the business world? The answer is yes, without a doubt. Beside the entertainment factor, the so-called can be an opportunity to turn your employees into real assets for the business.
Indeed, this type of game has a learning goal and can help organizations find solutions to everyday problems, integrate new practices and promote a greater sense of belonging. Here at Synecdo, our serious game SimulBest puts into perspective both the work of employees and managers in order to optimize their daily lives, and thus transform them into assets!
There are several benefits to serious games. The one developed by Synecdo allows 4 specific advantages for employees… and employers!
Getting involved
First of all, the main purpose of our serious game is to put the participants at the very heart of their company and of its problems… and therefore its solutions! Not only is it an immersive experience, it’s also very motivating! The competitive aspect of it all leads participants to get involved, and to understand for themselves the problematic elements that are repeated on a daily basis. What could be more interesting than taking the time to put your business into perspective in order to optimize it considerably?
Evolving in a controlled environment
Failure is the key to growing and evolving as human beings. The serious game allows us to make mistakes without any kind of impacts on the business. In our opinion, it really doesn’t matter who wins (or loses), the real winners are those who understand the reasons behind the results. These realizations will then be translated into your everyday life, since you’ll then know the strengths and the ways to improve your workplace.
Experiencing multiple realities
What comes up most often in the feedback given by those who have participated in the SimulBest experience is that, finally, everyone gets an understanding of one another! They get a comprehension of their own position in the company, of the daily tasks that keep them from being more productive and they get aware why so much of their time is wasted.
This experience thus immerses employees into the reality of their colleagues and their leaders, and makes them understand their respective field of expertise. It’s the perfect way to secure a remarkable cohesion between colleagues, as well as improved productivity in a concrete and sustainable way. These realizations allow the optimization of work and enable people to become real assets and added value. The serious game allows the implementation of organizational changes that will improve daily performance.
Retaining acquired knowledge
Finally, after having experienced the immersive experiment that is Simulbest, participants will easily remember the key element which will emerge. Why? Because they will have seen and lived it themselves! This experience lets them pin down the cause of the problem, and even more, allows them to understand all the other inconveniences that result from it!
Thanks to Simulbest, Synecdo also offers a multitude of teaching strategies; project-based learning, teamwork, interactive lecture, problem-based learning, and much more! This allows for a complete experience and above all, one that is most suited to the needs of your business.
Synecdo is a business that wants to bring out the abilities of each employee in order to transform their work into added value. Thanks to the serious gaming process and the variety of activities offered, we wish to help you move towards organizational changes that will optimise your daily life. This development will allow employees to give the best out of themselves while leaving aside the avoidable waste of time. But it also allows the business to progress in a controlled and secure environment.
