🥳Excited to be speaking more about the Games Leadership® Blueprint! This course has been a labour of love over the last 2 years, bringing together my own experiences in both Game Dev and Psychology. I've had the privilege of Coaching over 200 Games Industry Leaders, and this Blueprint is a culmination of the real-life challenges and wins I've seen our Industry face. I’m committed to making this as relevant as possible (I'm still deep in the trenches making games today, so everything is designed with a Studio-first mindset) If you're curious to know more or have any questions about how the Blueprint could help you and your team, my DMs are open, or we can set up a quick call. #GamesLeadership #StudioCulture #LeadershipJourney #LearningAndDevelopment

Most chief execs I know have interests outside of work - it's often an important way they keep going. Outside of work, what is it that gives you energy?
