Potetial in Maturity

Produkt

Professional counsellors often rely on outdated tools, which are not appropriate for assisting people aged 50+. Conventional methods of professional counselling are time-consuming and often fall short of the needs of more demanding clients.

Persons aged 50+ often encounter challenges when trying to return to the labour market, are often discriminated against because of their age and may experience reluctance from the recruiters. Therefore, counsellors need to dedicate more attention to them in the process of looking for a new job.

The innovation consists in having a session of the board game whose aim is to climb the mountian peak following a chosen route. During the game, which is lead by the professional counsellor, one has to complete the tasks and gather the largest possible number of Experience Stones and Stones of Potential. The award in the game is getting to know the interesting story of a person who achieved success being already mature and to receive the Recognition Card.

The innovation serves professional councellors  working with the unemployed  aged 50+.

Non-profit organisations and public institutions working with persons experiencing unemployment at the age of 50+; local societies and social groups; professional counsellors; educational and academic instututions.

The products created as a result of testing are a board game and its elements, sich as cards, board and counters.

Improvement of professional counselling for people aged 50+; higher level of engagement and understanding; counteracting age discrimination; enhancement of the effectiveness of professional counselling.
