Serious Smiley Game
The Serious Smiley Game is a role-play and simulation game that aims to develop soft skills needed in standardisation processes, focusing on argumentation skills, common understanding and strategic positioning. It is a facilitated game based on careful instructions to provoke communication among the game participants and increase their understanding of the process of reaching a common understanding, which is the first and primary step for achieving a common agreement. The Serious Smiley Game is publicly available and can be played at professional training or university classes.
The first version of this game was developed in 2015 by Professor Ivana Mijatovic. Since then, the game has been played regularly in the Standardisation course of bachelor studies at the Faculty of Organisational Sciences, University of Belgrade. For the HSBooster.eu Training Academy, this game has been improved and tested on different sites. The experiences are positive.
We thank Magnus Hakvag, CEO of the House of Knowledge, who gave us valuable advice and suggestions and thus contributed to improving this game.
