Kickstart Your Hack with a new SAS Board Game

[Christine4]

Preparing for your hack has never been so much fun! 😊 This year, we’re dropping it like it’s PROC with a customized board game called SAS Hackathon Ideation.

The game is designed to help you and your team brainstorm ideas, identify which problem to tackle and determine what data you will use – ultimately, it helps you strategically plan for success!

In the true spirit of gaming, Ideation is intended to engage teamwork and inspire creative problem-solving. You’ll see collaboration emerge as a key component. As you play, you’ll start imagining all the possibilities! That’s the immeasurable benefit of the SAS Hackathon – helping you see the tangible value in innovation.

Also, as part of the game, we encourage you to use our SAS Hackathon Lean Canvas document. This template is a visual and strategic planning tool that will help you organize your use case. Download the document and use it to take notes while you play.

So, when can you play Ideation?

The game will be available to view at the SAS Hackathon Booth at SAS Innovate in Las Vegas.

Look for its arrival to a SAS office near you - sign up on the Interest List to be notified first. Be on the lookout for dates and locations.

Sounds pretty cool. Actually, I think this might be a cool idea for team-building exercises. So, I think we should try it in the office.

Besides, as you've said that this game is good for brainstorming, and I know how important it is to organize your thoughts together as a team.I usually play some small games online in the office, such as solitaire or something similar. I usually pick something I can play online. But it's not like I don't wanna work and try to kill time before I the working hours are over. I usually play this game to organize my thoughts and to clear my mind.

This game seems all about brainstorming ideas, figuring out which problems to solve, and planning your strategy with data. I guess it can be pretty good for boosting teamwork and problem-solving skills.

If you like the idea of mixing fun with your strategy sessions, you might want to add a digital twist. For instance, using an online tool to roll dice can make decision-making more random and fun.
