And why don’t we extend that same respect to people who play video games at the highest levels?In this episode, William Collis, maestro of esports – aka competitive video games – makes the case that video games develop real, tangible and transferable skills. And it’s time that we appreciate them. So, after the talk, Modupe figures out how we can bring more video games into the workplace. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
