What will you do?

During five weeks of playing the game “Smart Collaborators: Working from Everywhere Together”, you and your team will set to work on structurally improving your (digital) collaboration. Each week, a new mission opens up with different assignments, such as completing a quiz, making work agreements about digital or hybrid collaboration, and improving the energy balance within the team.

Together with your team, you take part in a competition with other teams in your organisation. This means you are all striving for a spot at the top of the rankings! You carry out the individual assignments when it suits you best. The team assignments are added directly to your team’s meeting agenda. So, you’ll be learning and developing in daily practice!

Working with the professionals of the Cue — during and after playing the game — was a pleasure. The results have given rise to the start of an APG-wide programme: We Decide! And we are going to take up this programme further in collaboration with the Cue!
