DIA 2015 51st Annual Meeting: Develop. Innovate. Advance.

In this workshop, participants will learn the impact and application of using play and games in their workplace. Facilitators will lead the group in fun activities to explore how play can connect, encourage, and explore new ways of thinking, being, and behaving to motivate and engage those involved. Using concepts from improvisation theater, participants will design and present a training game during the workshop applied directly to their field of interest. We will close with a case study demonstrating the power and impact of games and gamification in an organization. Come have some fun and learn about the science of play and how it applies to your company!
