Are You Ready to 2X Your Revenue AND 3X Employee Engagement?

“As the go-to organization in our community for responding to community issues and convening people to solve those issues it is important for us to be nimble and able to respond quickly. We saw GGOB as a way to help us to work toward a common goal and help everyone see the ‘big’ picture of CPO.”

“Sharing and being open and honest are not always common traits in leadership, but after reading Jack Stack’s book, I recognized that these are the principles that build trust and empowers the team to come up with solutions.”

 “Prior to The Game we felt that the ship was pretty buttoned up and the only opportunities we had wouldn’t make that big of a difference. After playing Great Game™ for one year we’ve broken that stigma and have proven the small things really do play a huge role. GGOB has brought new life into our company.”

“Our motivation to play GGOB is fueled by our desire to create a successful, self-perpetuating business that provides the very best care for pets and an excellent client experience by a dedicated team of employee owners who each have the opportunity to be self-reliant.”

“One thing that has been consistent from the very beginning is the level of employee engagement and the positive, uplifting vibe during each of our huddles. We continue to invest in The Great Game of Business because it provides financial literacy for all employees, great transparency, and visibility. It just works.”

“Because we teach financial literacy as part of our onboarding program, we could have high level professional dialog even with our young employees. We didn’t have to slow down for anyone.”

“Great Game has been totally transformational for this company. Having now practiced the Game for nine years, played correctly, it impacts every aspect of the company. Developing a true team mentality has allowed us to transcend our competitors. Our team is all about winning and believe they play to win!”

“It was a huge burden off my shoulders that so many people inside the company had a deep knowledge of our P&L and our balance sheet.”

“We saw an almost immediate morale change and culture boost.”

“We do not believe we’d be where we are right now without the implementation of The Great Game of Business®(GGOB) and open-book management. GGOB gives our employee-owners insight into the financial strength of the company. Our huddles allow us to get together once a month and discuss revenue, expenses, profits, and direction. GGOB’s tools have created a pathway for our employee-owners to have a voice and truly help steer the company.”

“Behaviors and attitudes have taken a 180-degree turn. Employees are more engaged. They are not only showing that they understand, but also proving it with their involvement. We see the results of collaboration and communication. We see that we are all working for a common goal. Everyone wants to win!”

“I am grateful that we were about one-year into GGOB when the global COVID pandemic hit, our culture of transparency has been, for our team, a reassuring counterbalance to all of the uncertainty and turbulence in the world.”

“Our company would be stagnant or at least moving at a slower pace, if we weren’t playing GGOB. I love to see others grow and learn, so this has been a positive experience for me, see others take the lead, or maybe reach a little farther. Implementing GGOB has been hard work and continues to be hard work for our team, there is much teaching and learning that needs to be done, but I would rather sell the business than not run the business with a GGOB mindset.”

“We already felt like we had a very engaged team that cared about how they performed, but each year after playing GGOB, we’ve continued to grow stronger and break our own records year after year while having fun doing it!”
