Dear Colleagues!
Are you curious about leadership development? We invite you to join us at AOM for a experiential PDW that explores the often overlooked potential of play. Get ready to delve into "The Power of Play: the Overlooked Potential of Play for Management Learning and Development" (#10894). This PDW will take place at the Sheraton Boston Hotel in Constitution Ballroom A on Saturday, August 5th from 10:30am – 12:30pm.
Let us take a step back from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives and appreciate the power of play in fostering innovation, collaboration, and personal growth. Together, we will embark on a journey of discovery, seeking to uncover new perspectives and possibilities. The purpose of this workshop is for faculty members of all levels and demographic backgrounds to explore and experience frame-breaking, non-traditional approaches to leadership development. This PDW focuses on play as an innovative tool for developing leaders and showcases how different forms of play (i.e., improvisational theater, LEGO, yoga play, and equine-assisted experiential learning) can contribute to learning and development processes.
Our PDW consists of two parts. First, PDW panelists discuss the usefulness and potential of play for innovative business education and development programs. During the second part–which takes a roundtable set-up–participants can experience, explore, and discuss two of the four play-based interventions which panelists have designed with the intention to viscerally make sense of the potential of play for their research and teaching.
Further communication will be sent directly to attendees as the date gets closer!
Spaces are limited, so we encourage you to reserve your spot promptly. Please register here: https://forms.gle/YqwL7pwHTUJK5zqr6
