Bringing the debate to you

Episode 465 — The business impact of play at work
All children play but, over time, that instinct goes away. We don’t lose it, we don’t forget. Instead, we get taught to stop.
For author and toy designer Cas Holman, that’s a problem. With a very real impact on business performance.
In this week’s episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Cas joins Ross Garner and Gemma to discuss:
- How traditional workplaces suppress play
- The business benefits of play at work
- How to encourage play when your organization won’t tolerate it.
