关于我们
At Building Better Games, we aim to move past the games industry headlines about big revenue/player numbers to look at why some companies win and others don’t. Making games is hard. We know! We’ve been there, and through our own successes and failures, we’ve discovered one core theme: leaders are the catalyst to building successful games. We’ll talk about what those leaders do to create a winning (or struggling!) team. Whether you’re a CEO, a discipline lead, or just someone wanting to know more about game dev, we’re here to answer some questions, raise others, and provide a path towards something we always wanted: an effective and holistic way to lead within game development.

Be sure to catch Ben's first IGDC workshop on estimation! Safe travels to everyone and hope to see you there. ????
Helping Producers in Games Build Better Games. Host and Publisher of the Building Better Games Podcast and Newsletter. Follow me for posts on leadership in game development. God bless!
Putting final touches on my upcoming India Game Developer Conference workshop! This one is about humans and estimation, why our intuitions often mess us up, and how to become better calibrated no matter what you're trying to predict or estimate. One thing I talk about in estimation: ranges. Too often when people ask for and provide estimates, they think in terms of a specific, precise value. A single value fails to capture one of the most important things you can learn from estimation: how much uncertainty there is with the estimate. Even if you know and communicate that a lot of uncertainty exists, people will see that simple, solitary number and figure we have things well in hand. I'm not saying everyone should start communicating in ranges when estimating - honestly, that's probably a good way to annoy people who don't know much about the topic. Some of those people might be senior leaders in your company! What I am saying is that even if you start THINKING in ranges (and encourage your team to do so), even if rules and process force you to come up with a single, precise number/date/etc., that number will be more likely to be correct, AND you'll have realized and can then work to reduce the amount of uncertainty that is present if that's helpful. Anyway, don't want to spoil too much, but I'm excited to be flying out early next week! Thanks for the invite IGDC! I'll see you next week! #gameproduction #gameindustry #IGDC #estimation #gamedevelopment

I'll be speaking about Leading Well in Game Development later this week at the Shawnee Game Conference, very much looking forward to it! Leadership presents a huge opportunity in game dev. If we can get leaders better trained and with a stronger foundation of values, I believe it will go a long way towards making game development ready for the future. We need that. Our current models are failing. Thanks to Travis Lynn for bringing me on board and providing an opportunity to speak! Excited to be headed there, now to use this week to polish everything up! See you there! #leadership #sgc #shawneegameconference #gamedevelopment
