The Way of Evivve 3: Redefining Facilitation Programs

Evivve 3 Program

In today’s world, where effective teamwork and strategic planning are indispensable, finding innovative ways to foster these skills can be a game-changer. Enter Evivve-a collaborative strategy game designed to bring out the best in communication, strategic thinking and resource management among its participants.

Activation

Kickstart the journey with a comprehensive introduction to the world of Evivve. Facilitators can utilize videos to explain the game's aspects, guiding participants through a single-player mode for hands on experience. This phase sets the stage, ensuring everyone is familiar with the gameplay and rules.

Facilitator Options:

• Set time for "Learning Guide" and "Q&A session".
• Customize welcome messages to set the context.

Forecasting

Participants come together to discuss and devise a game plan, assigning roles and strategizing based on the program context set by the facilitator. This phase emphasizes collaboration and collective decision-making.

Facilitator Options:

• Set "Forecasting" time.
• Update subliminal messaging to guide the focus during planning.

Experimentation

Now comes the moment of action. Participants execute their strategies within the game’s dynamic environment. This is where plans are put to test and teamwork shines.

Facilitator Options:

• Customize game settings to match program goals.
   

Realization

Post-game, participants reflect on their experiences. This introspective phase is crucial for understanding individual contributions and learning outcomes.

Facilitator Options:

• Set "Realization" time.
• Update "Realization Questions" to steer the discussion.

Reflection

In the final stage, facilitators lead a comprehensive discussion to evaluate the game outcomes and draw important lessons. Topics can range from the importance of team loyalty to maximizing collective goals.

Facilitator Options:

• Set Reflection time.
• Update "Reflection Points" to cover specific learning objectives.

Program Management

Create Program

Head to the program page from the left navigation bar and click on “Create Program“

Evivve 3 comes with various pre defined program templates. You can choose one of the template and get started with the program right away. We recommend trying a template first and later change settings as per your requirements.

Once the program is created you enter the edit mode. Here you can customize any specific module within the program. It is recommended to use the template settings as it is until the format is very much familiar with the facilitator, i.e. understanding how customization can effect the program session to achieve the required goal.

Once a template is selected, you can choose the “Program Type”: Virtual or Physical Mode. 

We recommend a fixed participant limit to make sure that the program runs smoothly. A program can have many participants, but for a single session of the program its best to follow the recommended player limit. You can create multiple sessions for the program to accommodate rest of the participants.

Program Flow

Every program has a specific flow which can guide a facilitator to manage it fluently.

Evivve 3 provides a “Main Action“ button, which is a convenient way to access the next step in the program flow. It can be found in the program edit mode in the bottom right.

You can also access any of these components manually through the icons of the “Plan“ section.

Conduct Dry Run 

The next thing that we want you to do right away is, head to “Conduct Dry Run”. Where you can get a feel of what a facilitator will be presenting to the audience.

The Importance of a Dry Run

Incorporating gamified platforms like Evivve into corporate training can revolutionize learning. However, successful implementation hinges on meticulous planning and testing.
