design sprints for employees

Many organizations invest little into their employee experience.

It’s common for new employees to wonder if they’ve made the right choice of joining as soon as their first day.

Many organizations fall into the trap of the “kindergarten office” approach to culture.

An approach with mandated forced fun and thinking that a ping-pong table is culture.

 

What Happens As A Result?

  • Reduced employee engagement.
  • Lower morale.
  • Higher employee turnover.
  • Reduced productivity.
  • Reduced revenue.
  • Higher levels of burnout.

WHAT IF there was an approach that focused on the fundamentals? An approach focused on building a strong foundation for the employee experience?

WHAT IF there was an approach that was like discovering customer needs and pain points, but applying it for employees? An approach that uses storytelling techniques that we’re all familiar with?

WHAT IF there was an approach for organizations to create more playful workplaces? One that looks beyond the ping-pong table and forced fun committees?

Playficient

We help organizations with their employee experience through the use of design thinking. Organizations love to use design thinking for discovering customer needs and pain points. We will show you how to use it for your employee experience.

We help organizations create more playful cultures. Table tennis and Playstations do not create a playful culture. That’s only scratching the surface. We’ll show you how to go deeper.

Testimonials:

The onboarding experience workshop by Playficient was the first workshop I attended and I found it to be very engaging and highly interactive. It was insightful and inspired me to think about ways to revamp the current onboarding process at my firm. I would recommend attending a workshop put on by Playficient.

Paul facilitated a play for work session for one of our 7Geese lunch and learn sessions. We found the session to be interactive, engaging and I could really tell that the team enjoyed the opportunity to discuss how this could apply in their day to day work. Thank you, Paul for facilitating this session and shifting our thinking around how play can facilitate positive work outcomes.

Paul grabbed the audience's attention from the very start. He lead them through a very engaging and highly interactive workshop. Everyone who attended took something away from the evening's event (including myself). With Playficient, Paul is addressing a need to further blend our social and work lives, and he's doing it in a fantastically creative way.

Paul facilitated a “Leadership Through Play” workshop for our international students at ILAC International College. He was very professional with his communication and approach to delivering the workshop. He paid close attention to how the workshop was developed so as to suit our unique needs. What Paul is doing with Playficient is so relevant for today’s demographics in the workplace. I would love to bring him back in to speak with our administrative team!

From the beginning of the session, Paul made everyone feel very comfortable about what was about to take place. Each activity was something I felt I could accomplish. Never once did I feel uncomfortable during an activity or that I was unable to be vulnerable with my partner(s). It felt empowering to open up in front of a group of strangers and feel heard. I now know that no matter who you are, where you work, or what you do; engagement through “play” can and should take place on a more frequent basis.

From the beginning Paul made me feel comfortable. Each activity was something I felt I could accomplish. And contrary to putting me in a spotlight with no instructions, I had clear instructions and always at least one willing partner that ensured I didn’t fail. It was later that I learned that is a key element of improv – that you never let someone fail.That has really resonated with me as a leader. If I can remember that a team should be built and supported so everyone embodies this belief, it lays a different foundation.
