The Business Transformation Game
Mission X
Transform real business challenges into leadership growth through an immersive strategic game experience. Navigate missions, make strategic decisions, and apply Design Thinking while building essential transformation skills that directly transfer to your leadership role.
What is it?
Mission X is a strategic business transformation game where teams tackle real-world challenges while developing critical leadership capabilities. Unlike traditional training, this game-based experience addresses two key pain points: the gap between learning leadership theory and applying it under pressure, and the difficulty of practicing Design Thinking methodology in a safe, engaging environment that mirrors real business complexity.
What you'll walk away with

Design Thinking experience. Apply all five phases (Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, Test) to tackle business challenges creatively and systematically
Real-world application. Navigate unexpected challenges, adapt to changing situations, and develop solutions that create genuine impact for users and organizations
