How about finding a playful company to reignite your drive at work and reduce your stress? Now more than ever, organizations are allowing\u2014even mandating\u2014their employees to play at work. Why the sudden change in strategy? While it seems a distraction from real work, incorporating playtime in the workday has been shown to have some great benefits. From reduced fatigue<\/a>, boredom, and stress, to heightened creativity, productivity<\/a>, and motivation<\/a>, the drawbacks to play are hard to find when properly implemented.<\/p>\n As veterans of a Radical Sabbatical and keynote speakers on the topic of mental health, sabbaticals, and taking all your vacation<\/a> every year, we fully appreciate the benefits that a slow trickle of play at work can have on one\u2019s wellbeing and stability at work. And as executive coaching<\/a> professionals using games<\/a> to help clients meet their goals, we get to see which techniques improve employee satisfaction, wellbeing, and engagement. Changing the narrative from \u201cPlay doesn\u2019t belong at work,\u201d to \u201cPlay means a happy, energized and engaged team,\u201d means a less stressed<\/a> you both on the job and in your personal pursuits.<\/p>\n Take Valley Forge Fabrics<\/a>, for instance, which we toured in addition to speaking with CEO Diana Dobin<\/a> about play at work. Featuring a game room and slide, the office is both a high productivity and play environment for employees who \u201clove to work hard and play hard,\u201d according to Dobin. \u201cWe work long hours and have really high expectations for performance, so the fact that people can play amidst that creates a really unique culture of A-players,\u201d she says. Today, Dobin claims Valley Forge is \u201clike a different planet\u201d with turnover down 17 percent since 2013.<\/p>\n
