Photos: Game over for boring business training

When gaming and business collide

Forget storming Martian bases or battling advancing armies, the latest challenge for gamers is mastering the frenetic world of business process management (BPM).

INNOV8 2.0 is an online game that has players fighting to avoid a grilling from the IT director rather than death at the hands of an end-of-level boss.

The player plays a business consultant who is tasked with reversing the fortunes of ailing corporation After Inc.

Their goal is to turn around After Inc's customer call centre, and to improve its fleet traffic and supply chain management, as seen in the picture here.

Potential players can see a video of INNOV8 in action here.
