The Safest Teams Take the Boldest Risks

Burnout Prevention & Psychological Safety with Playful Intelligence™

Our brains are built to solve problems, imagine, experiment, and create - but stress, constant change, and “do more with less” expectations shut down that ability fast. The very thing we need most - courage to be curious and connected - is the first thing to disappear. In this workshop, Brandi Heather helps you restore your personal biological advantage: Playful Intelligence™. You’ll learn a repeatable, practical framework to: Reduce burnout that kills creativity, drive, and motivation. Build the psychological safety that makes bold thinking possible. Respond with clarity instead of reacting with snap decisions. Includes the PI Organizational Analysis—an in-the-room look at hidden workload, untapped strengths, and the barriers blocking your best work. The next big idea won’t come from more hustle. It will come from space, safety, and play.

Know Your Team, Build Your Team, Keep Your Team
Workplace Culture, Engagement and Retention with Playful Intelligence™

Research shows us that getting to know your team personally builds trust, authenticity and strong interpersonal relationships. Reduce turnover and increase organizational effectiveness by spending a day finding the often hidden network of connections between people that makes you an organization where people want to be.

Activate the skills that get hidden by fear and dissolve barriers to creativity, connection, and collaboration. Apply a shared language that makes adaptability and innovation part of everyday work.

Playful Intelligence™ Innovation in Disruption
The Creativity & Adaptability Reset Your Team Needs Now

When change hits, most teams double down on what’s safe - and slowly suffocate their own best ideas. Innovation gets buried under process. Risk-taking feels dangerous. And “problem-solving” turns into finding the fastest way back to business as usual. This workshop flips that instinct on its head. By finding and utilizing your Playful Intelligence™, you’ll dive into high-impact challenges that spark fresh thinking, rebuild trust, and stretch your team’s adaptability muscles until they become second nature. We’ll use science, and some laughter to shift out of survival mode and into something way more sustainable. You’ll leave with clarity, connection, and a sense of, 'Oh right—this is who I am when I’m not just pushing through. This isn’t a sit-and-take-notes kind of day. It’s a day to reset your nervous system, figure out what’s draining your energy, and start building a work life that fuels you. You’ll learn how to: Break habits that keep your team in safe-but-stale thinking. See challenges from fresh angles and connect ideas in unexpected ways. Break patterns of survival that keep creativity stuck in neutral. Spot and remove the hidden friction that slows collaboration.
