Have you tried to create authentic connections between your employees and leadership teams but keep hitting roadblocks? In this HRchat episode, we consider the role of play in upping engagement levels in the workplace.
Bill's guest this time is Jeff Harry, Founder, and Positive Psychology Play Whisperer at Rediscover Your Play. Jeff shows individuals and companies how to tap into their ‘true selves’, to feel their happiest and most fulfilled — all by playing.
He has worked with Google, Microsoft, Southwest Airlines, Adobe, the NFL, Amazon and Facebook, helping their staff to infuse more play into the day-to-day.
Jeff is an international speaker who has presented at conferences such as INBOUND and Australia’s Pausefest, and was selected by Engagedly as one of the Top 100 HR Influencers of 2020 for his organizational development work around addressing toxicity in the workplace.
He has been featured in the New YorkTimes, San Francisco Chronicle, and CNN.
Jeff believes that we already have many of the answers we seek. By simply unleashing our ‘inner child’, he suggests, we can find our purpose and, in turn, help to create a better world. And we'll delve into that wonderful aspiration today!
