The Office That Plays Together Stays Together

There are a lot of simple ways a company can encourage play in the office. But why would a company ever want to do that? We’re glad you asked.

That brings teams closer together which is a benefit in any situation, but especially in times of stress, like when – well, you probably know what stress is (just a hunch).
