Diagnostic Team Performance Simulations: Diagnose collaboration blocks faster / Align communication better. These team performance simulations are deliberately themed with memorable research from Antarctica, and the insights gained are applied to real work contexts. The debriefing strategies focus on how to tighten team communication and collaboration processes for more effective collaborative problem solving.
1) The Winter Over Mystery Game is a gamified exercise designed to test a diverse team’s ability to communicate virtually – and in the process, to learn to share and sort through critical information in order to effectively problem solve as a team.
2) Beneath the ICE is a deep dive canvas that uses a sociography process to map a team’s communication and collaboration strategies to identify how to improve.
CREATE: Diagnostic Creative Blocks Gameboard Simulation:
USAGE: This gamified simulation is based on the book and full workshop “Who Killed Creativity? and how to get it back”. It is a quick way for any leader and their team (max-7) to discuss, diagnose and explore blocks to creativity, and then identify the best rescue strategies. This is recommended to do before embarking on any design thinking session. Engage a professional facilitator to use the boardgame canvas as part of a full program, OR run a self-led independent session (or as a follow-up after the full program) with just the boardgame canvas. – The online Core Elements Collaborative Team Canvas comes complete with instructions, videos and steps.
CREATE: Creative Solutions Collaborator Canvas with Design Thinking Tools

How to use & purchase Tirian’s collaborative boards/canvases
ABOUT
- The Collaborative Canvases, gamified simulation boards, and other tools can be purchased independently. They are also used by accredited coaches, facilitators & licensing partners integrated into a full workshop &/or coaching session.
- Independent purchase: The boards/canvases are the core elements section (mini version of a full workshop). A leader can purchase a board/canvas and use it with their team. They come with complete step-by-step instructions and videos. Some boards/canvases require some prior knowledge of the models /concepts (generally gained from participating in a workshop, course, book, or general knowledge of the topic).
HOW TO PURCHASE?
- The leader buys the canvas /board, by going to https://courses.tirian.com/collections?category=collaborative-canvas-gameboards
- Only the team leader needs to purchase the course online. The team leader follows the course flow, logistics info & instructions to coordinate with their team. Tirian will send a unique ULR to the actual boards/canvases. The team leader then invites the rest of their team by way of the unique URL (browser-based) to join the digital boards/canvases. Some prior knowledge of how to use the tools, (Miroboard, Padlet etc) will be necessary for the leader/team. OR they can be printed and used physically.
LOGISTICS:
- Recommended time: 1-3 hours, Numbers: 1-7, Cost US$300.
- A) Single use: Some boards/canvases are purchased as a one-off license per board. This means the purchaser would need to re buy a new board/canvas for each new team. (Check conditions for each board.)
- B) Subscription: Some boards/canvases can be bought once and reused multiple times by the same leader, coach / per year. This would require PDF’ing the current used board, and then wiping clean the workings to start again. (Check conditions for each board.)
- Pre and post-courses + accreditation courses & licensing (full workshop) are also available.
