Pro Active
A Game About The Causes Of Stress And How To Prevent It
Do you want to learn more about how to prevent stress in the workplace - in an engaging way - while increasing well-being and output?
Pro Active is a business simulation game that helps bond teams and make them more stress resistant. Designed in collaboration by Game Designers on the one hand, and Work and Organizational Psychologists from the University of Copenhagen on the other, Pro Active draws on the latest evidence based theory surrounding stress-prevention.
Pro Active is an affordable, engaging learning tool that shows how groups and teams can act proactively when colleagues are at risk of becoming ill with stress. Employees get to test their knowledge in a safe simulated reality, where insightful reflection and shared ownership of decisions is encouraged.
Central Themes
- How to balance assignments when there is extra work to do?
- How to notice that colleagues are under pressure and what to do about it?
- How to create a company culture and structure that prevents stress?
Why Learning Games?

- Simulated learning games are a great way to identify employee strengths and blind spots.
- Learning games provide a fun way of addressing serious issues.
