What Gamestormers are saying about Expeditions


The calm, enjoyable, consistently high quality level of delivery, and the approach to strategic problem-solving is robust… Coupled with excellent exercises, makes for a coherent system.

-Jesko von den Steinen

PwC, Lead Facilitator


The best way to learn to Gamestorming is to participate in a facilitated session with a Gamestorming master.

In addition to experiencing a workshop, you’ll develop supporting skills like drawing and have a chance to see behind the curtain of how it all comes together: planning, stakeholder meetings, pre-work, game selection and follow-up.

We’ll meet six times over two weeks for 18 hours of live exploration and experience the following:

  • Complete the - Navigating Uncertainty: Futures Thinking - workshop designed for you, your team or your clients to navigate uncertainty and build strategic resiliency!

  • Take a behind the scenes look at planning and facilitating a Gamestorming session, online and off

  • Understand how to choose games and create engaging agendas using the Open-Explore-Close framework

  • Overcome “but I can’t draw!” and other objections to playing games at work

  • Develop facilitation techniques to “flatten” the room and engage a range of personalities

  • Cultivate the skill of noticing and visual thinking

  • Get hands on with tech, including: virtual whiteboards, digital drawing programs and video conference software



As the business landscape and our working world become increasingly complex, we must develop techniques to navigate uncertainty and keep work engaging, creative and fun.

Gamestorming enables you to bring more creativity, collaboration and fun to your work, your meetings and workshops while still getting the work done!


See one, do one, teach one. 

Guided by our hands-on approach to learning, we’ve designed Expeditions for you to experience a complete Gamestorming workshop while also getting the chance to peek behind the curtain and develop supporting skills to make your work and workshops more engaging creative and fun.


We’re wired visual thinkers. Learn to include drawing and visual thinking into your meetings and workshops.


Gamestorming offered us a vehicle of true engagement. Everyone’s voice was heard. Everyone participated. We had fun. There was real collaboration. This is what I am striving for as a manager
