Why You Should Consider Becoming an Evivve Facilitator

If you're a workshop or learning facilitator, I'd like to talk to you especially as another facilitator. Because it serves the context, I'd like to share a bit about me before I go into the details of why you should consider using Evivve as a tool/game of choice for facilitating behavioral learning experiences. I'm a facilitator who turned into a game designer (more on that here).

As a facilitator, I have frequently facilitated learning experiences for my clients across various countries even before I was using games for learning. I was already facilitating learning for Siemens, Motorola, Sony and many other companies across MENA, South Asia and SEA regions and I didn't exactly need games to differentiate myself or to justify the value I was bringing to my clients. But I was always on a lookout to create more meaningful and impactful learning experiences for my learners. And I would consider the following parameters when looking into any new tool :

• Does it bring a Zero to One value?
• How much effort does it take to learn it?
• Does it leverage my existing skills and allows me to extend them further?
• How much does it cost?
• Does it improve my value proposition?

So when I finally built my own tool, I ensured that it significantly addressed all of these areas. And more so when I was offering it to other facilitators around the world. I also want to acknowledge that there's no one size that fits all and that these parameters and how I perceived them may have worked for me and a number of others, and it may or may not work for you. You may or may not decide to become a certified facilitator for your own reasons and they're all valid :)

But if you're still here and want to know why you should consider becoming an Evivve facilitator, read on!

Does it Bring a Zero to One Value?

Here's how Peter Thiel explains what Zero to One is:

Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. And the next Mark Zuckerberg won’t create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren’t learning from them.

Of course, it’s easier to copy a model than to make something new. Doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But every time we create something new, we go from 0 to 1. The act of creation is singular, as is the moment of creation, and the result is something fresh and strange.

At Evivve, we believe that learning should be:
 

• Engaging and Immersive: Tailored to meet the dynamic needs of organizations.
• Experiential: Our multi-player game fundamentally changes the traditional learning landscape.

Does it Leverage My Existing Skills and Allows Me to Extend Them Further?

Absolutely!

Quick Start Templates from Evivve play a crucial role in improving facilitation skills by offering an easy to follow, comprehensive, and structured approach to game-based learning. These templates not only reduce the initial learning effort but also ensure consistency, scalability, and continuous improvement in the delivery of impactful learning experiences. By leveraging these templates, facilitators can seamlessly transition into using Evivve, confident in their ability to deliver sessions that drive engagement, reflection, and skill development.

The Quick Start Templates offered by Evivve are specifically designed to make the facilitator onboarding process smoother and more efficient. These templates act as an initial guiding framework, reducing the time and effort required to understand and utilize the various facets of the platform.

Structured Learning Pathways:

Quick Start Templates provide a clear and structured pathway for facilitators to follow. This reduces the cognitive load and anxiety associated with running game-based learning sessions for the first time.

They guide facilitators on effectively using the AFERR (Analyze, Facilitate, Empower, Reflect, Repeat) framework, ensuring that each game phase is conducted proficiently.

Reflection and Debriefing:

The templates offer detailed instructions for debriefing sessions, encouraging facilitators to focus on reflection and learning outcomes.

They provide essential questions and discussion points that help facilitators drive meaningful conversations, reinforcing the learning objectives.

Scalability and Adaptability:

Facilitators can customize the templates to fit specific team dynamics or organizational needs.

The templates adaptability ensures that facilitators can modify and scale the training sessions regardless of the number of participants or context.

Continuous Improvement:

The templates provide a reliable foundation, enabling facilitators to progressively incorporate their insights and experiences and enhance their skills over time.

The templates serve as a baseline, allowing facilitators to integrate new strategies and techniques they develop through practice and feedback.

 

How Much Does it Cost?

I spent the bulk of my professional life chasing money and I got it. I made a lot of money doing some really unique and exciting work. But when I built Evivve I knew it wasn't about the money. And yes, I need money to keep the lights on and the engine running but that's not what drives me. What drives me is the belief that I'm empowering change agents (you!) with another tool that can create a shift. It was with this mindset that I priced Evivve.

Two important considerations:

A small factor of your facilitation fee

Having facilitated learning experiences across 5 continents and nearly 50 countries, I know what facilitators across the world charge for their services. I wanted the Evivve fees to be a small percentage of what you charge your clients. This was especially hard at first because there were only a handful of people using Evivve inconsistently. I had development and operating costs to cover and so much of the initial funding came from the facilitation services I offered my clients.

Point is, I didn't want to deter you from using Evivve because you/your client couldn't afford it :)

Charge by duration and NOT participant count

Many SAAS products charge you based on the number of people that will use the product even if the product is designed for facilitators. I just put myself in your shoes and asked if I would charge my clients based on the day/workshop/delivery/program or the number of participants. The answer was clear and obvious. Most facilitators don't charge by the number of participants in the room, so why should they pay with that logic? It also makes accounting and planning confusing. Last minute additions, cancellations, or no shows. Do we charge you for it? Do we not? Do you charge your client? Do you not?
 

Let's keep it simple and charge how a facilitator charges for their services. Most facilitators have a day/half-day rate. This is what they charge for their time. I aligned my pricing model to yours so you can confidently budget what it will cost to use Evivve when integrating it into your program/design.
