I have run MarsLanders and Phoenix Projects in NZ and Australia and summarise feedback as follows: MarsLander: "This has been a great day to identify where we as a team can do things differently to improve value internally. To do so in a safe and fun environment has been fantastic. It's been one of the best learning experiences I have ever been part of." Phoenix Project: CIO commented firstly, on the fact that he received only positive feedback from his teams and customers and secondly, on the fact that people were all receiving the same message around change, but they were picking up on different aspects. Finally he felt there was a lot of value to be had from attendees being placed into roles within the simulation that they would not normally do (technical people in business roles and business people in technical roles), so they all got to look at things from a different perspective.?? Business partners commented on how they found the simulation useful in two ways; to understand how they could work closer with ITS and help each other, and how their teams could work better. Several non-IT teams are now discussing engaging us to run the simulations within their business areas.
