In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, guest Elizabeth Cushing, CEO of Playworks, shares insights into the power of play. And while we may think of play time as exclusively for kids, adults can also learn a lot about themselves and others through play. Tune in to find out how our guest was inspired to champion the cause of play and how play can make a difference in your relationships, your perspective, and ultimately, your business.

 

TAKEAWAYS

  • While it's evident that kids benefit from play, adults can also learn valuable lessons through play in the areas of team building, socialization, and overall personal development.

  • Play is a crucial avenue for learning teamwork, curiosity, and conflict resolution. 

  • Adults, especially leaders, should actively participate in play to break down barriers and build trust in the workplace.

  • Opportunities for play cannot be forced; instead, players should be invited to participate of their own accord.
