325 - From Activation to Realisation: Learning through Play with Mohsin Memon
Context is everything. But when we remove ourselves from the tried-and-tested playing board of our work environment, to rewrite the rules and become new characters on fresh, unchartered ground? Everything changes.
On a mission to create a world where people play to learn, Mohsin Memon returns to the show, now as the mastermind of Evivve. His new multiplayer, leadership strategy simulation immerses teams in safe, fictional worlds rooted in neuroscience – designed to create powerful learning opportunities and realisations rooted in truth.
A conversation filled with lightbulb moments, rich insights and lots of learnings for leaders and facilitators alike. Press play!
Find out about:
- The AFFER model that underpins Mohsin’s work in behavioural change
- The five behavioural learning cycle stages of activation, forecasting, experimentation, realisation and reflection
- Why the most effective leaders are those who can make sense of complexity
- How simulation can democratise an organisation, without hierarchy or expectation
