It Pays to PLAY: How Play Improves Business Culture
Culture isn’t built from values stuck to a wall—culture comes to life through people. When our teams have fun at work, feel connected and engaged, culture happens!

Key Takeaways:

This session is a reminder (and a nudge) that bringing a little more joy into how we lead, collaborate and show up every day has a powerful ROI. Play isn’t the opposite of work—it’s what makes great work possible.
