Empowerment at NuWorks with the example of Kumiko’s 4 years anniversary

Time flies! Kumiko, our co-worker at NuWorks works now already for 4 years here.

I played it many times with a group of people or with individuals. Through some iterations and experimenting with it, I have developed an extended way of playing it, which I like to share with you.
