It makes me so happy to see other outlets talking about the value of playing at work. From a purely anecdotal perspective, I'd say 90% of the things I hear clients, friends, and acquaintances complain about regarding work have to do with other people. * Not understanding different communication styles. * Incorrect assumptions about other people's motivations and behaviors. * Perceived conflict that is really just differing priorities or perspectives. * Feeling ignored or devalued. ALL of these have to do with lack of empathy and understanding among colleagues. Which means they can all be solved and prevented. Play is the MOST EFFECTIVE tool for enhancing interpersonal skills and dynamics at work. Do you think your company would be open to the idea of play? Let me know in the comments. If you are curious to experience Barometer XP's approach to facilitated play in action, check out the upcoming events linked in the comments below.

Fantastic to see!! We feel it all the time when we experience it, and it’s great to see more talk and publications about this alongside the work you and Barometer XP is doing!
