SUMMARY:The People Conference Virtual Workshop
DESCRIPTION:I’m excited to share that I’ll be a speaker for The People Conference\, presented by Black and Veatch\, on Tuesday\, July 18th! This is an employee-only event\, but here’s a little snippet of what my workshop is all about! \n\nAs professionals\, do you fall into these categories?\nCompartmentalize your days and separate play from work?\nAvoid bringing your authentic-self pass the office door?\nFind that you are not “recharging your battery”?\nHave fear to step out of your comfort zone?\nExperience more anxiety than curiosity?\n\nIf so\, you are like most people and this presentation is for you! Mr. Gary Ware\, author of Playful Rebellion Maximize\nWorkplace Success Through the Power of Play will introduce you to steps to engage in to understand why play is important\nand rediscover your own playful spirit and the advantage of becoming a “Play Rebel”. Mr. Ware’s approach can easily connect\nto many ASPiRE principals\, especially the Mood Elevator\, the Accountability Ladder\, the Shadow You Cast. By bringing\nplayfulness into your life and the workplace\, you can begin to connect with yourself and improve every part of life. The\nbyproduct is you’ll achieve more joy in your work and interactions\, which will have positive impacts in all of your interactions.\nPresenter: Gary Ware\, Author of Playful Rebellion Maximize Workplace Success Through the Power of Play
