Welcome from the Academy founder, Liam.
 

Our Vision:

To enable games industry professionals to plan better, lead better and stop the crunch culture, through building a community of support, knowledge and training.

About Liam:

I have been a lifelong learner, as well as a teacher, trainer and eLearning consultant. I have been fortunate enough to serve with the games industry as a Dev Support Manager, Head of Operations, General Manager, Dev Director, Senior Executive Producer, Chief of Staff, VP of Production and Chief Development Officer. I bring 30 years of experience across different industries, bringing that synergy of experience and foundational knowledge to you.

 

I've worked at Sony PlayStation, Sumo Digital, Wargaming and other games companies, as well as for BT, the Foreign Office, Astra Zeneca and a bunch more outside of the gaming industry.

 

My passion for teaching led me to create hours of podcasts and YouTube videos packed with useful material for game producers and others at Game Production Academy.

 

I have deep foundational knowledge, backed up with accreditation across project and programme management, including:

MSP Foundation & Practitioner | Scaled Agile, SAFE 4.0 Agilist Certification | PRINCE2 Certified Foundation & Practitioner | Enterprise Kanban Management Professional | Kanban Management Professional | Professional Scrum Product Owner / Scrum Master | MBA in Business Analytics, from OP Jindal Global University (pursuing online).

 

I am also writing books for a well-known publisher of game development literature.

 

Above and beyond the bio hype, I am a good listener and give good hugs. Please feel free to reach out directly if you ever want either or both of those.
