Play Your Way to Career DevelopmentA Facilitator’s Guide for Making Growth Fun Again

Play Your Way to Career Development ScreenshotCareer development can get heavy.

Important questions. Big decisions. Forms to complete. Plans to make. Pressure to figure out what’s next.

Career development is serious business. It just doesn’t always have to feel so serious.

What if lightening up could help people go deeper? Play lowers defenses. It sparks curiosity and creativity. It encourages experimentation and helps us make unexpected connections. Most importantly, it can help people see themselves—and their possibilities—from a fresh perspective. Sometimes the best way to get serious about growth is to play.

Serious development. Disguised as play.

Play Your Way to Career Development brings together seven engaging games and activities I’ve used with clients to generate consistently powerful insights and conversations.

These aren’t games for games’ sake. Each one tackles an important aspect of career development in a fresh, approachable way—helping people reflect, challenge assumptions, explore what matters, spot possibilities, and think differently about growth.

And the play is just the beginning. Thoughtfully designed debriefs turn the experience into deeper conversation, greater self-awareness, and meaningful next steps.

Easy to use. Again and again.

You don’t have to be a game master—or redesign your career development efforts—to put these tools to work.

The activities require little preparation and are ready to add to team meetings, workshops, onboarding, coaching conversations, leadership offsites, or existing development programs. Use one on its own or combine several into a larger experience.

Your purchase includes an organizational facilitator license and reproducible materials, allowing you to use the games with as many teams, departments, and cohorts within your organization as you like—indefinitely.
