PROGRAM REFLECTIONS

Being part of the Barometer cohort was a real eye-opener. I consider myself a seasoned and experiential trainer/facilitator. However, experiencing the thought process, the design, and the impact of just some of the games the Barometer team have developed made me realize there is so much more opportunity to engage and debrief with teams in ways I hadn't imagined. The games themselves were invaluable. Added bonus, the community of facilitators I'm now connected to and learned from. It was a valuable and productive experience, for sure!  --  Erin O'Malley, CEO & Founder, ErinOConsulting

I have always loved games as a facilitation tool, but it can be challenging to create exercises and games that don’t feel like ‘forced fun’. Barometer XP offers really clever and fun games and exercises, creating opportunities for teamwork and leadership in a way that demonstrates how people work individually and together. Games are designed to address different aspects of team and leadership and to prompt smart, open discussions about all different aspects of work. This is the kind of fun that teams will actually have fun with!  --  Lauren Lefkowitz, CEO, Lauren Lefkowitz Coaching

The BarometerXP team's passion for games is obvious - they find unique and diverse games and help think through meaningful facilitation. I feel like I've added a new dimension to how I engage my audiences, that is well received and better remembered.  -- Priya Jindal, Founder, Nextpat

The program opened my eyes to the power of games for helping a team understand themselves. With facilitation,  a team could take what they learn from the games to making steps to change.  --  Ellen Luebbers, MD, Assistant Professor, CWRU School of Medicine
