Business Value Game

Imagine that you take over a company and you have six months of runway to prove your business case. Would you be able to make the right decisions? Could you decide on which clients to focus on and which ones to drop? Could you launch the features that leave your competitors in the dust?

Our teams loved the Business Value Game! Our goal was to bring together the IT and finance departments who aren’t customer-facing day-to-day. The Game helped people understand how important are our customers, knowing their expectations and meeting them. The Game was interactive, even the shiest people took an active part and enjoyed the teamwork and getting to know each other.

The Business Value Game was a great opportunity to gauge my own strategic thinking abilities - and its shortcomings - as well as learn from others. It was also incredibly entertaining. It felt like a board game where you need to know 90% of the rules upfront - and if you have any product skills, you know them. Don’t forget to invite your business stakeholders to play. There’s no better way to help them understand what building a product means from the inside.

What is the game about?

The Business Value Game is a simulation of the everyday life of a product team. You have six sprints to figure out and execute the strategy that will earn you the money. 
 
You will decide who are your target customers, which products, features, and functionalities should be built, and which should be disregarded. By the end, we will find out which team was more successful.
 
The game builds on top of the Business Value Game created by Vera Peeters and Pascal Van Cauwenberghe.
