In 20 years, Xbox has gone from a significant player in the gaming industry to a huge presence in pop culture worldwide. Xbox means much more than gaming, synonymous with innovation, entertainment, community and technological advancement.
Nosworthy Group designed and co-delivered Xbox’s Leadership Off-Site, a 2-session digital experience, as well as the subsequent in-person Leadership Summit.
Core pillars of our experience design were conversation and connection. The intention was to create a space where Xbox’s leaders could explore inspiring concepts and share perspectives without worrying about “saying the wrong thing”—to lay the groundwork together for new growth.

Our approach
DIGITAL LEADERSHIP OFF-SITE
- Themes of leadership: We focused on effective personal leadership and leading through ambiguity and change.
- Immersive and interactive experience: Co-delivered over 2 weeks, this was a mix of keynotes, breakout sessions, self-reflection activities, group activities and open Q&A.
IN-PERSON LEADERSHIP SUMMIT
- “What would it take to do our best work?” Creativity was the core construct with supporting notions of Curiosity, Connectedness and Courage.
- Fresh learning experiences: We explored these in 5 inspiring learning sprints, enriched by interactive and self-reflection activities and robust learning resources.
- Globally recognised contributors: Four thought leaders, each offering deep insights on Curiosity, Connectedness and Courage—were engaged to pre-record simple yet sharp provocations.
- Powerful and pragmatic: The Summit concluded with next-steps to take learnings outwards to teams.
