The WorldGAMES Story
"One fun 15 minute game just blew me away. It showed me clearly why I was in my mess and what I needed to do to change it. Just 15 minutes to solve a problem I had struggled with for 2 years!"
Read John's story - a brief illustration of the power of learning games.
WorldGAMES creates fun, effective and lasting training:
Games
Our games are powerful metaphors for what happens in the workplace. They are fun, mostly competitive, have rules and winners. As children we learn best through playing games and as adults they are just as effective. Click on Training Games Mini Packs for information about our super games mini packs or click on For Experienced Trainers for more information including games summaries, training games packages and how to use experiential games in training.
Exercises
Exercises are non competitive learning activities that lead participants to a desired outcome. Like games they are fun, active and effective learning tools. Unlike games, there are no set rules and many of them can be played alone. Games and exercises used in conjunction with each other form a very powerful learning combination. Click on Exercises for information about our super games and exercise mini packs or click on For Experienced Trainers for more information including exercise summaries, training packages and how to use experiential exercises in training.
Simulations
While games are metaphors, rather than mirrors of the workplace, simulations parallel real life. They are like special filters that compact and enhance the action, raising the key points clear of the surrounding detail so that they can be more clearly understood and actioned. Simulations are used to illustrate the differences that make the difference.

"The transfer of the learning from the training room to the job has been truly remarkable"
Tools
Tools are the glue of experiential training. They provide the "how to ..." methodology for taking the learnings from games and exercises and turning them into practical steps and options that will increase skills and improve results. Included in the How to be a better manager than your boss ... tool kit are over 120 different purpose built "how to ..." tools that are the building blocks to success. Like a Do-It-Yourself manual, or a tradesman’s tool kit, you simply use one the tool you need and change it for another if it does not suit you. Click on Tools for more information on the How to be a better manager than your boss ... tool kit and how to use tools in training.
Programs
Experiential Programs are a combination of games, exercises, simulations and tools packaged to achieve a specific learning outcome. There are currently 39 different off-the-shelf programs available covering a broad range of the “soft skills” (non-technical). They work because they are fun, active, engaging and comprehensive.
"It is possible to speed up the learning process anywhere from five to twenty times."
Games, exercises, simulations, tools and programs come in the following packages:

Assessment Centres
In one-on-one feedback sessions, we have witnessed a greater than 95% correlation between the way participants behave in a series of experiential activities and the way they behave in the workplace. There is no more powerful way to predict future behaviour that past and current behaviour. Assessment Centres are powerful selection tools and identifiers of team drivers and barriers. Using your key competencies, we help design an assessment process to meet your precise needs and outcomes.
Conference Packages
Conferences can be your worst nightmare full of dry corporate data and speeches or they can be the most effective way to build teamwork, shared spirit and high levels of motivation. WorldGAMES Conference Packages enliven and motivate even the largest gathering.
