Shortly after I tested InnoBall
on my own startups, I created
the InnoBall version for large
companies.
The InnoBall process for
startups and large companies is
the same, but entrepreneurial
strategies and the enemies of
innovation and change are
different.
Launching a
radical project –
change, venture,
innovation – without playing InnoBall simulation games is like
starting a football game naively believing that the opposing team
does not exist.
Venture into the unknown wisely
– play InnoBall first
InnBall players grow their
innopreneurial smartness rapidly
during the simulation game.
In
particular, InnoBall players
build their strategizing,
anticipation, creative problem
solving, creative marketing and
intellectual teamwork skills.
Sample InnoBall
Sessions
Startups
I
played InnoBall solo many times
for both a radical innovator
(myself) and
diverse enemies of
disruptive innovations. These
InnoBall games helped be turn
Innompic Games from an idea to a
strong holistic business design.
We
played InnoBall with co-founders
before launching the 1st World
Innompic Games.
Large Companies
Mars Inc. ordered an InnoBall
training because they wanted
their talented employees to
break out from the routine work
and start creating innovations
for the company.
NPD Co. ordered two InnoBall
sessions to enhance
entrepreneurial smartness of
their radical-innovation team,
reduce risks, strengthen the
business model, and reduce
time-to-market.
Metaphoric KoRe 10 Innovative Thinking Tools (KITT)
help streamline the ideation process and make INNOBALL fun.
10 KITT boost team creativity and
anticipation skills.
They also make it easier
to explain the essence of the solution to the audience.
When people
participate and engage with
gamification
initiatives, such as
InnoBall, they learn easier and faster how to
develop better strategies, anticipate challenges,
invent entrepreneurial responses, and interact with their
teammates creatively.
