A Team Holiday Party 🎅 Ho-Ho-Hosted Online
Hello Reader,
You probably already know that I’m a big fan of play.
Not as an escape from work, but as a way to do better work.
As I wrote in my 16-page ebook Gamify Your Work, Dr Jason Fox said, ‘People don’t play games to avoid work. People play games to engage in well-designed work.’
As we approach the end of the year, many businesses are turning their thoughts to a year-end holiday party.
The easy way to do a holiday party is:
- rent a venue,
- have an open bar,
- hire a DJ, and
- let everybody dance.
For many in-person teams, this is a solid formula. It lets everyone get together, complain about the boss in whispers underneath loud music, and blow off steam together. This provides a temporary facsimile of a relationship, but no real connection.
What about if you have a distributed team, with people who live in multiple locations? How can you help people feel celebrated, and improve the culture before everyone takes off for the holidays?
We can Ho-Ho-Host a Virtual Zoom Games Party.
My virtual workshops are already interactive and engaging, when I’m teaching topics like productivity and digital marketing.
When I host a Fun & Games session on Zoom, all we do is have a great time. I can help your team deepen their connection, culture, and collaboration through the power of play.
Feedback from recent workshops and playshops includes:

📊 “I honestly think ChatGPT Voice is one of the most important technology advancements of our lives.” - Alex Finn Hello Reader, If you tried ChatGPT Voice before, and you were unimpressed, try it again. The previous Voice experience was interesting, but awkward. It interrupted pauses. It misread the end of a sentence. It responded too quickly when you were still gathering your thoughts. Talking to it felt like you had to manage an over-caffeinated friend, who was too enthusiastic to...
