Gary Ware is on the podcast this week! Gary Ware, the Founder of Breakthrough Play, is a sought-after Corporate Facilitator and Keynote Speaker with nearly a decade of experience as a performer in improv theatre. He assists teams with unlocking creativity, confidence, and sparks collaboration with experiential methods proven to drive peak performance.

Gary spent over a decade in the corporate world and originally pursued improv to master public speaking. He quickly discovered that combining improv and play could be a powerful solution to achieve various business challenges. Naturally, he created workshops for his team and other executives in his network to deepen relationships and improve creativity. Gary became obsessed on learning how to use play as a transformational tool and as a result, happily transitioned from marketing to pursue facilitation full time. Gary was also recently featured as one of the Top 100 HR influencers for 2020 by the Engagedly HR software platform.

In this conversation, we discuss: how to bring play into corporate environments, the science behind play, creating safety in facilitation settings, the broadening definition of games and play, the different play personalities, and the different paths to play.
