Play Just For The Sake of Playing and Having Fun

by Robert Manolson  BA, CCDP

Creator & Facilitator Powerful Play Experiences

Inspired by the Power of “Play” and eager to take people to their happy place, Powerful Play Experiences is in the business of “FUN AT WORK!!”  This defines our business.  It's what we do best.

Isn't it really all about happy staff?  100% of staff surveyed agree that they all can use more FUN AT WORK, generate more excitement and energy, and create a dynamic team of individuals working together as partners in their department's success.  The atmosphere at work is much more appealing, and staff report a feeling of “community and positive energy” in which co-workers are truly connected, and operating more effectively together.

Building healthier and better workplace teams while strengthening workplace organizations is the desired outcome.  Outdated incentive programs like a three-week vacation for every 11-and-a half months of work, or coffee breaks, or gym time before or after work hours are being replaced with “Fun at Work” staff events that have relevance back to the workplace.  This is team building.

The Value of Fun At Work

Staff are always asked to report the benefits of “Fun at Work” immediately following their Powerful Play Experience, as well as when they returned to work after their team building event.  Comments include:

• Set the tone to feel positive, be happy, and created a readiness to take on the next big task.
• Raised energy levels.
• Strengthened relationships with co-workers.
• Alleviating stress levels.
• Stretched and challenged our imaginations and creative thinking.

Incorporating Fun At Work

The most important first step to incorporating “Fun at Work” is clarity of intention.  When business decision makers work with Powerful Play Experiences, they know their intention, whether it's team development, staff training, employee engagement or staff recognition and appreciation.   Hardly a surprise given the new reality - businesses are climbing out of the economic downturn and are taking bold steps in their commitment to innovative strategies to grow their companies.

Step two is pivotal.  Identify a clear business message.  While this may vary from business to business, the most common business message is “Being The Best That We Can Be.”  It's all about an optimistic attitude.  Business decision makers are motivated to get their employees happy to be where they are and all pulling in the same direction.

Powerful Play Experiences then develops a powerfully fun, interactive and highly engaging team building experience around the delivery of that all important business message.  “Fun at Work” is intentionally weaved into the delivery of that message.  The focus is to incorporate “Fun at Work” into the daily grind and to powerfully maintain this momentum even after the team building experience.  After all, isn't it really all about a smile on everyone's faces at the end of the workday?

Position your company as the “Employer of Choice.”  Show your staff how important they are.
