What People are Saying: Acey's Permission to Play workshop was even better than I imagined. It was a great introduction to how play can benefit both our work and our brains. I especially enjoyed the practical strategies we could apply right away to bring a playful approach to common situations. This was an engaging hour of learning and fun that had something for attendees at every level of our company, and I'm proud that our ERG was able to present this event.
