Manage episode 381987869 series 2593842
Organizations should integrate play, build relationships, and embrace change to enhance business performance and create a positive work environment. Playfulness in the workplace boosts engagement, creativity, and teamwork. Building strong relationships fosters effective communication and collaboration while embracing change allows businesses to adapt, seize new opportunities, and stay competitive.
Kristi Herold is an extraordinary entrepreneur and the founder and CEO of Jam, one of the world’s largest adult recreational sports leagues. With a vision to get over one million people playing annually, Kristi has significantly promoted play and its positive effects on corporate culture. She is the author of the book “It Pays to Play: How Play Improves Business Culture” and has received numerous awards for her contributions, including being named one of Canada’s top 100 most powerful women.
