๐ Ready to Gamify Your Work? ๐
๐ฎ Tired of the same old routine? During the Facilitation Lab hosted by Voltage Control this Thursday at 2 pm ET / 11am PT / 7am NZT , we're turning work into play, and you are invited to play some games with us!
Hello Reader,
Do you sometimes feel that your work is just drudgery?
The industrial revolution conditioned us to see work as toil. But what if we could infuse our tasks with joy, making hard work go by faster, with a dash of fun?
In Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's book, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, he described the state of flow as complete concentration, clarity of goals, and activities that are intrinsically rewarding. This state is not just about doing our best work; it's also about being in a state of play.
Later this week I will be leading a live, interactive virtual workshop for Facilitation Lab, and you are invited. (No cost to attend! Great for facilitators and leaders of all levels.)
๐ What You Can Expect:
- 3 interactive games to beat burnout and increase collaboration
- Gamification techniques that increase performance and productivity
- Fun activities you can use in your own virtual meetings
๐ Join the Fun! Don't miss out on this game-changing workshop.

See you in the game! ๐น๏ธ๐

๐งญ โThe purpose of meetings is not to talk โ the purpose of meetings is to arrive at ideas, solutions, plans, and decisions.โ - Alexander Kjerulf Hello Reader, I have tried all the AI meeting notetakers over the past few years. Fireflies, Otter, Fathom, Monologue, and more have all had a turn in my systems. Traditionally, I give them a month or two, and get dissatisfied at some feature or annoying user friction - until six months ago. I found Granola. (Disclaimer: by clicking my affiliate...
โฉ "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." - African proverb Hello Reader, An AI Working Group ships projects. Tools are changing faster than humans can keep up. Most teams and organisations are throwing Copilot or Claude licenses to their crew, with a quick 'good luck!' and maybe an inscrutable warning about token counts. Making mistakes can be costly, when you rely on a paycheck. There isn't a structure for risk-taking or innovation with AI in corporate teams,...
