KEYNOTE & WORKSHOP:
THE POWER, PURPOSE, & PROFIT OF PLAY
Transform How You Work, Connect & Lead Through Play
“I’m on a mission to take play out of the gutter & put it into the spotlight where it belongs.”
While society claims to honour play, the reality is very different. When serious conversations arise, play is often banished to the sidelines — left outside while the “adults” make important decisions. This outdated mindset limits creativity, connection & well-being.
It’s time to flip the script.
In this transformative session, you’ll:
✅ Rediscover how central play is to being human
Play is not frivolous — it’s fundamental. Learn why it matters more now than ever before.
✅ Understand what happens when play is discarded
Explore the profound costs (personally & professionally) of ignoring play & how it diminishes creativity, relationships & resilience.
✅ Learn how to use play to achieve your goals
Discover how playfulness fuels innovation, drives results & transforms interactions — all while experiencing playful activities that teach through doing.
This session doesn’t just talk about play — it plays to teach about play, which is exactly how humans learn best.
Attendees often leave deeply moved, rethinking their relationship with play. Many share powerful stories — tears in their eyes — about how they plan to engage differently with their children, spouses & colleagues.
Play is transformative. Play is revolutionary. This session will help you unlock that revolutionary power for yourself, your family, your teams & your organization.
🔑 Key Takeaways
✅ Incorporate play into life & work
Gain actionable strategies to weave play & a playful mindset into your daily work, relationships & decision-making — where it belongs.
