Lauren Silver—A bit of Fun (Rebroadcast)
What about fun and play in business?
This months podcast from the archives* is a bit of fun.
Lauren is passionate about helping people bring play into their everyday. But the results are no joke! She uses improvisational and playful performance techniques to boost creativity, confidence, and communication in teams.
This, in turn, creates a positive and productive working environments for corporate as well as freelance industries, where wellbeing and collaboration come together.
This was a lot of fun to record.
*Rebroadcast: Due to time and other commitments, I’ve paused the creation of new Mentality Meets episodes. However, through these rebroadcasts, I want to highlight some incredible previous episodes. There is some brilliant content and insight in the archives.
