Shhh, we’re not going to completely tell you how this works (we like to have surprises) BUT here’s the goal – you will learn that in order to really understand all options, whether it’s a business problem, a motivation, or a donor, you’re much better off remembering to ask others for help and intel. Together you are stronger.  Or, as one of our colleagues says, “you cannot make decisions by staring at your own belly button.” (Shout out to Susan Galler.)

Oh, and listening skills are always on display.  You’ll hear from someone that can tell you about what has already been tried, “Let me tell you a little bit about the early days.  We once had a pack of llamas…”

Oh, oops, forgot to tell you this part, before you begin you are also told that you need to select three people from the assembled group that you can be in close communication with to help you with this game.  This will enhance your outcome, as colleagues always do.  

Nope, not telling you about the rest. It’s a journey of understanding and practice. 

Ok, well, one more thing.  Later on, we play with some fake money as if it were our own (nothing better than that.)  One of our team members keeps telling us not to use photocopies of real money (got it), so we’ve made some of our own money (nothing better than that.)
