Team Work
A major benefit of play involves learning to tap into a
part of the brain that may rarely be used in the workplace – the fabled
right hemisphere. This is the
cerebral real estate that plays host to imagination, creativity and
intuition. Long thought to be useful only to artists, writers and musicians,
we now understand that right-brain thinking also plays a vital role in the
business world. After all, where would any successful enterprise be without
innovative thinkers and innovative thinking?
Team building
and training games have been played for centuries. The game of chess is a
training game created in the 4th Century to for teaching strategy to
military and political leaders. Today, SPLAT offers all kinds of games
designed to make better workers, thinkers and team players. All of them
involve "play" and "learning".
" You
learn more about a person in an hour of play than in a lifetime of
conversation."
(Plato)
