TALENT TRANSFORMEDincreasing workforce resilience and impact for the interactive entertainment industry

Developing the right strategies for your business is often not enough. Even if a decision is clearly correct, a mandate of change does not ensure buy-in from the workforce, commitment to overcome the challenge, or eliminate fear and anxiety.

Employees lacking context and awareness for the organization and their role within it raise unnecessary impediments at times when you can least afford them. Instead of aligning to address the problem, they often talk past each other. Friction and distrust emerge, wasting precious resources better spent tackling the problems.

Developing a resilient culture � rst requires that all employees have the same level of base knowledge and awareness. The workplace must be an environment where every contribution is respected, and each voice can communicate their ideas, concerns, and solutions with the overall impact to the business in mind.

By achieving individual awareness, leaders can then engage their desire to grow, by instilling the skills and domain knowledge needed to achieve it.

ENABLE your workforce to....

• Speak and act with a common language.

• Appreciate the business impact of decisions.

• Respect the contributions of the various teams inside and outside of your organization.

• Identify and act on risks and opportunities.

• Be more prepared to adapt to change.

So your organization can...

• Maximize the contributions of internal and external resources on projects.

• Minimize risk of project mis� res and delays.

• Move quickly to embrace changes that drive the business forward.

• Strengthen credibility with customers, employees, and other stakeholders.

ACCESS DECADES OF EXPERIENCE AND INSIGHT.Historically, video game professionals had to rely on osmosis and tenure to develop a broad understanding of the industry they work in. In the rapidly changing market of today, this approach is no longer viable.

Time has become the most valuable commodity; every project is tied to a limited budget and window of opportunity. Limiting employee growth to their silo of experience exposes the organization, its projects, and its people to unnecessary risk or even total failure. So what is the alternative?

MAKE CHANGE YOUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE.Change is personal. When a business is required to transform in order to compete, each individual is impacted differently. A single decision may require 50 unique transformations to occur. It may be new tasks, new directions, or new deadlines. It may demand change to personal schedules, skill sets, or even careers.

IEP can help you to overcome these hurdles by increasing your workforce resilience. Our programs work simultaneously from the top down and the bottom up, to make change an ally instead of an adversary.

We’re excited to help you achieve your goals. Please contact us to learn more.
