This workshop is a deep dive into solving tricky real world problems. It is a full day of talks and exercises in a round table setting. This is not 101, but rather an exploration of how to manage real world game development problems. As well as exercises, participants can discuss and work on some of their past and current challenges with the help of the facilitators and other participants. There is a panel of industry experts from production, code & art to help with suggestions and solutions.

Producers, senior producers, executive producers all have the toughest problems laid at their feet - how do they navigate these and come up with ways to move forward, negotiating with many disciples and other leaders in their projects & organizations. How do they make tough decisions which do not benefit all? We learn from industry leaders.

In addition, we look at the core principles of production as well as a deep dive into setting & achieving successful team culture. Hosted by Charu Desodt & Dave Ranyard, former Playstation, Microsoft now both running indie studios and including top leadership from AAA studios this is a session for producers at all levels.
