InfiniteGame is a human resource training service provider aiming to re-kindle passion, collaboration, trust, and innovation in people working together through cooperative real-life and virtual games. Our service will be in three parts. The first part is conducting a pre-training collaboration status analysis questionnaire to understand the organization structure and collaboration mode, and making anonymous employee phone interviews to understand the pain points during client employees’ collaborations. The second part is a semi-customized on-site training that includes cooperative real-life and virtual games based on the results of the questionnaire and interviews. The third part is tracking the training result and helping the client cultivate a new collaborative corporate culture by a series of post-training 3-month follow-up games.
With the impact of pandemic and the rise of digital technology and individualism, The Economist has predicted that what firms will need emphasizing in 2021 is new ways to bring employees together other than drinks on Zoom. Indeed, simply increasing the quantity of collaboration is not enough, InfiniteGame wants to provide a service that helps improve the quality of collaboration with better communications, more trust and creativity.
Our semi-customized cooperative games will be different from those existing consensus camps in the market in three ways. First, our art-related cooperative games do not use physically challenging activities to emphasize competition or self-exhibition, rather we encourage individuals to discover themselves and each other, re-calibrate themselves in teams, and re-adapt to a new collaborative mindset with art-related games. Second, unlike those competitors using a one-fit-all curriculum, we semi-customize the games according to corporate’s specific conditions based on the results of our questionnaire and interviews. Third, while a traditional consensus camp is usually a one-time big long course happening in one day or two, which employees inevitably forget as time goes by, InfiniteGame provides a series of post-training 3-month follow-up games that will help cultivate new collaborative behaviors into new collaborative habits and eventually into a new collaborative corporate culture.
