Play@Work
As children our days were filled with productive play. What was entertaining was also instructive. Finger painting and games of tag were exercises in planning, strategy, design, decision-making, creativity and risk-taking. Play was serious business in our youth and should be serious business in our adult life if we hope to unleash the creative genius within us. By cleverly drawing from childhood lessons, Kevin reveals the relevance of play and how we must continue to tap into those lessons for our future success. Carroll raises a variety of questions during the session including:
· Are you continuing to strengthen your creative genius?
· Do you have the necessary creative endurance to deliver consistent and amazing insight and business ingenuity?
· Why should an organization’s business culture embrace the power of play even more so in the 21st century?
· How can a business culture that incorporates “purposeful play” impact leadership, employee quality of life, retention, and attract new talent?
