Uncovering Our Blind Spots

Participants dive into the truth of our “blind spots” and how they get in our way and will learn strategies for minimizing their blind spots while maximizing their self-awareness.
Learning Objectives

Once leaders understand the impact trauma can have on their employees, they should create policies and procedures that align with core principles
Learning Objectives

Why Fun Should Matter to Leaders
Active engagement in the workplace has dropped to 23% (Gallup 2023). Leaders around the world try to solve this problem with incentives, feedback, team building, and work-life balance seminars. More attuned leaders consider the psychology of Flow Theory. Flow, a famous concept by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, explains how humans do or do not experience engagement. It explains how and why we get “in the zone” and is a major factor in whether we bring our whole selves to our work or just go through the motions. Flow has served as a theoretical framework for many leaders and consultants, particularly facilitators, however, in 2005, game designer and entrepreneur Raph Koster made the connection that Fun and Flow are inseparably tied together in his book “A Theory of Fun for Game Design.” In this session, we will discuss the traditional tenants of flow theory, including the balance of skill and challenge when performing work tasks. We will also incorporate the discoveries related to flow that come from more traditional “fun” like playing games. Through discussion and activities, we will find out how a little fun at work can actually improve performance, and that work can be fun without silly gimmicks.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the theory and benefits of Flow
- Implement at least one fun activity into their work or team
- Appraise whether they are experiencing Flow or fun in their work
