Luke has been leading the way in developing powerful frameworks and tools that allows companies to collaborate at scale and innovate successful. His thought leadership and practical tools are will help any organization succeed in an ever changing world.”
“When I read “Innovation Games” I liked the process; when I applied them “in the wild” I loved the results. I’ve been a raving fan ever since, handing out copies of the book to colleagues engaged in Voice of X, product management, innovation or marketing. Then I had the opportunity to work with Luke as he prepped to speak at a conference. He’s smart (obviously!) but more importantly he’s passionate, engaged and authentic. He demonstrates he believes in and cares deeply about serious games - and how they can help companies, governments and individuals.”
“I first met Luke while we were working up a partnership between Enthiosys and GlobalLogic and it has been a fantastic adventure ever since. I have learned something new and valuable from each and every interaction I have had with Luke. He has an infectious quality about him that I have seen impact not just in myself but whomever he is around. His energy seems to be boundless and his creativity off the charts. If you want to drive better results out of your organization and do so while having a genuine good time you need to get Luke and his Innovation Games into your business.”
“Luke’s strategic vision, unbounded passion, and clearly defined methods for getting to the heart of customer requirements has proven indispensable to me and my ability to develop my business. His expertise as a facilitator, his thorough preparation, and his genuine desire to see his partners succeed sets him apart from other business consultants. I look forward to doing a lot more business with Luke and his company in the future.”
“I’ve been in the consulting business for a long time, and I can say I have met few people like Luke. Boundless energy, incredible knowledge, articulate, and genuinely passionate about market research, innovation, and product management. I would strongly recommend Luke to anyone in product design, product management or product development, regardless of industry. Working with Luke is a total adventure. Don’t pass up a chance to work with someone who is a true change-agent. ”
“I had the pleasure of working on a project with Luke and would gladly do so again. His mind races at a million miles an hour! He has more ideas in a morning than many people have in a lifetime. And Luke is a people-person. He truly enjoys spending time with his team and wants to help them both professionally and personally.
If you haven’t already, you should read “Innovation Games” (available on Amazon and elsewhere) to spark your creative juices.
I look forward to working with Luke again in the future.”
