How I came to love Competitive Wargaming

I ran my very first Competitive Wargame on Valentine’s Day 2007 in a conference room overlooking the Eiffel Tower in Paris. 

The approach has evolved since that day 15 years ago and now we run Competitive Wargames over multiple markets, timelines and areas of the business in all sorts of different ways. Each of the last 30+ games has added a new idea and refined what we do to make what, I believe, is the perfect Competitive Wargame. I love running them. 

I love them because every single time, without fail, I see the participants build better, tangible action plans to make sure they win in the marketplace. And when I follow up, more often than not, I find the business has grown faster than their competition. I watch (and guide) as people experience “lightbulb moments” on how to make a breakthrough to step change performance. I admire as teams of stakeholders across multiple functions come together and reaffirm their belief and desire to beat the competition. I also like it that people have fun. It is a joy to lead. 

Our mission at The Competitive Wargaming Team is simple: we design, organise and run Competitive Wargames so you beat your competition.
