The Project Management Gameboard Origin Story

We could have used almost any metaphor or framework but, we chose a GameBoard because, well, it’s a bit of fun when things get intense.

We know from experience that ensuring a project succeeds can be incredibly stressful. So we launched the Project Management GameBoard to both simplify and funify your work!

It’s simple, memorable, easy to share, and focuses on collaboration and effective teams. You can jump into the GameBoard at any point and use it to ensure success.

“Investing in your organizational culture will give you the biggest return than any other endeavour.”

I really enjoyed working with the Project Management GameBoard and Annie MacLeod—I found we were able to really quickly get work accomplished and decisions made on our project using their tools and techniques. This was very unique compared to other consulting engagements I’ve experienced which can be more conversational and less action-oriented.

The Project Management GameBoard was clear, organized and exactly what we needed. We were able to move from a bunch of great ideas to launch a new service offering – online learning. We generated an executable plan in just 3 short workshops. I would start every new project this way!
