According to a CareerBuilder survey on stress\, 61% of employees are burned out on the job. The solution to this massive problem is more than just vowing to take vacation time.

In this session\, you’ll get a clearer understanding of the impact of incorporating play into your workday. In addition\, you’ll learn activities that will help you elevate your team’s mood\, enhance creativity\, and increase their capacity for connection.
