Align With Business Outcomes

Map cognitive KPIs to KPIs leaders already track. Example: Reaction Time → safety incidents, Sequence Memory → error rates, Number Memory → customer response accuracy. Present a one-page ROI hypothesis to leadership.

Pilot Structure

Pick two departments and run an 8-week sprint:

  • Week 0: onboarding webinar.
  • Weeks 1-6: BrainGames blocks (10 min) 3x/week + measurement.
  • Week 4: interim survey.
  • Week 8: final report + decision to scale.

Culture + Incentives

Gamify with internal leaderboards, Slack shout-outs, and small rewards. Showcase stories (“Support team cut average handle time by 8% after focus drills”). Create office hours with performance coaches.

Measurement Stack

Link BrainGames exports to BI tools. Combine with existing KPIs (NPS, revenue per rep) to prove value. Run pre/post cognitive assessments and gather qualitative testimonials.

Scale + Governance

Once ROI is clear, add BrainGames to onboarding, leadership programs, and wellness allowances. Train internal champions, document SOPs, and revisit quarterly.
