A couple of months ago, we launched our creativity series on the topic of 'Awaken Your Intuition', which opened up our thinking about the importance of creativity at work. We then followed up with a conversation on 'Welcoming Creativity Into Our Lives', which helped us move from the creative to the practical. To round out our three-month creativity series, we will focus this month's workshop on 'Infusing Creativity, Humor, and Play in the Workplace'.

The work-life question is ever-prevalent, particularly in the Silicon Valley. Many people who stay in the valley enjoy working hard and playing hard, welcoming opportunities to balance the two. But do we need to delineate the intense, results-oriented side of us from the more creative, fun-loving side of us? Can we balance the two, and if so, what is the business and personal value of doing so? The current demands of innovation require both. Productivity does mean process, but companies that undermine play, creativity and humor will ultimately hurt their own innovation. Fun and play are key ingredients for sustaining a healthy corporate culture that nurtures creativity.

In this interactive, fun-filled workshop, we will investigate these questions and more! Come prepared not just to have a good time, but also to think critically about how infusing your natural creativity and sense of humor, and that of your peers and partners, into the workplace will bring sustainable results for the bottom line. Bring your questions!
