Learning about risk management by playing games? Yes!
Starting this week, we kick off with a brand new blog series in which we will ask guests to blog about their field of expertise. All these experts have designed a game or toolkit to provide fun learning. From now on you can expect a new blog every month! You can look out for things like a bowtie dialogue kit from BlueBehavior or a toolkit from MEDD that is used in healthcare. In this month’s blog, we’ll introduce our own Bowtie Game. Find out what this game entails, how we came up with this game, and where you can play this game.
Have you ever been excited to think about Bowties? With the Bowtie Game, you might be. The Bowtie Game starts by putting a bunch of people together, giving them some pre-made sticky notes, and telling them “each of these sticky notes COULD be an element of the bowtie.” Next, we ask the question, “Can you figure out where it should go”. Immediately everyone’s eyes light up as questions shoot through their mind: “Is it a threat? Is it a consequence? No, it’s a barrier!”
