The Quickest Route From Good to Great
At some point, you just feel it.
You should be capable of more, but for some reason it’s just not happening.
And it’s hard to pinpoint any obvious causes, making it near-impossible to start working towards lasting solutions.
That’s where the LONG GAME Performance report comes in.
This report looks at the foundational elements in every company that drive performance, based on my coaching work with 70+ founders and leaders in the videogame industry.
Specifically, I look for fit and completeness.
Fit: Do the management elements of your company add up to a logical whole?
Completeness: Have you taken care of the fundamentals, or are there any gaps?
With this report, you’ll become acutely aware of your strengths and weaknesses in how you run your business.
And thanks to my tailored advice, you’ll know exactly what to do to take each element to the next level.
What’s Included
Self-Assessment
Your leadership team will fill in a short assessment spanning 30 questions on your company’s strategy, management, and individual leadership efficacy.
This will show to what extent you are internally aligned.
- Understand team sentiment
- Self-identify weak points that require improvement
- Identify contested points that require alignment
Expert analysis
I will do an in-depth analysis of your strategy and management structures and processes.
You supply the documentation for this, allowing for a completely asynchronous, minimally invasive process.
- Analysis on foundational management elements
- Tailored advice for taking each element to the next level
Full report and discussion
All results are documented in a comprehensive report.
You will be invited to ask any and all questions you might have to ensure that every part of the report is clear and understood.
- 20+ page report
- 60 minute call to discuss report and ask questions
- Recorded for your convenience
BONUS: You will also get a EUR 500 discount on any future services, should you require help to implement any of the suggested improvements.
Sample pages
This is for you if…
… you feel like your company has the potential to do (much) more, but you’re not sure how to realize that potential
… you want to know exactly where you currently stand before making any changes to the way you run your company
… you’re serious about professionalizing your studio, and want to know how to improve even more
The Process in a Nutshell
- As soon as you check out, you’ll receive two links: one to the self-assessment (share this with your leadership team members) and one to a shared google drive.

- I share the report and invite you to a call to discuss the findings. After the call, I share the full recording with you for future reference.
