    The Power of Play: the Overlooked Potential of Play for Management Learning and Development 

    Dear Colleagues!

    Are you curious about leadership development and eager to explore new avenues in this area? We invite you to join us at AOM for an experiential PDW that explores the often overlooked potential of play for leadership development. This PDW will take place at the Sheraton Boston Hotel in Constitution Ballroom A on Saturday August 5th, from 10:30am-12:30pm.

    The purpose of this PDW is for members of all levels and demographic backgrounds to explore play as an innovative tool for developing leaders. By learning about, discussing, and experiencing how different forms of play (i.e., improvisational theater, LEGO, yoga play, and equine-assisted experiential learning) can contribute to learning and development processes, this PDW aims to open the discussion on frame-breaking, non-traditional approaches to leadership development and generate community-building in this area.

    Our PDW consists of two parts. First, PDW panelists discuss the usefulness and potential of play for innovative business education and development programs. During the second part–which has a roundtable set-up–participants can experience, explore, and discuss two of the four play-based interventions which panelists have designed with the intention to viscerally make sense of the potential of play for their research and teaching.

    Further communication will be sent directly to attendees as the date gets closer!

    Spaces are limited, so we encourage you to reserve your spot promptly. Please register here: Play for management learning and development PDW (AOM 2023; #10894)
