Fun at Work with Paul Lopushinsky
We all just want to have fun… but is the workplace really the right setting? In this unique episode of Transform Your Workplace, Brandon Laws gets the lowdown on the benefits of a playful workplace. His guest, Paul Lopushinsky, is a workplace play advocate and the founder of Playficient, a consulting company dedicated to helping companies invest in their employees. Even though it may have a bad wrap, Paul insists that when workplace play is implemented correctly, it can have a significant impact on productivity, morale, and the overall employee experience.
4 Takeaways:
- A bottom-up approach is ideal when it comes to creating a playful workplace environment.
- Play in the workplace leads to a boost in employee morale, productivity, and retention.
- Companies should be wary of implementing “forced fun” or “mandated play.”
- A buddy system can be an effective tool in facilitating playfulness at work.

#1.27 Coach Yourself on Fun at Work Day!
Today is officially Fun at Work Day! Instead of discussing various "funativities" to try with your team today, coach Julia Seal looks at your thoughts and opinions of this day to demonstrate how you can coach yourself to get the results you most want in your life - happiness & success.
She demonstrates the basic process of coaching yourself, using examples, and how you can apply Buddha's experimental method to change your lived experience of today.
Together, examine your deeply held beliefs about work and fun at work, such as the Robert Owen's 1817 well-known slogan "8 hours' labour, 8 hours' recreation, 8 hours' rest". Then, explore some paradigm-shifting Thoughts to try on and practice for the day including "Hard Work is Fun", "Fun at Work is always available to me", "I am fun" or "Life as 50:50 is fun".
This episode is a simple outline of the coaching process we have been on together in Series 1 - from our Defining - Assessing - Visioning step-by-step coaching process to our mini-coaching programme looking at your unhappiness, your negative emotions in detail.
There really is no better time to do this work together!
