What if playfulness isn't a distraction from leadership, but a leadership skill?

As organisations navigate AI, disruption, uncertainty, and constant change, leaders are being asked to do more than ever before.

The question is: 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝘆?

Join us for a 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 conversation with Sarah Creevey as we explore the serious case for playful leadership.

Together, we'll discuss:
• Why playfulness is linked to resilience and adaptability
• The difference between genuine playfulness and "forced fun"
• How curiosity, creativity, humour, and spontaneity support leadership
• What playful leadership looks like in practice
• How coaches can help leaders reconnect with hope and experimentation

"The opposite of play is not work – the opposite of play is depression."
— Stuart Brown

This is the challenge Will Johnson offers to men. And it might just change everything. 🔥

In the first episode of our brand‑new 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀, host Rob Lawrence speaks with Will – a facilitator and coach who guides men to live and lead with greater authenticity and peace.

Will knows this terrain personally. He hit burnout in a senior finance role, ran out of energy, and had to ask for help. That moment of courage led him to a retreat that awakened a part of himself he had lost – and ultimately to a new calling.

Key insights from this 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
▪️𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗴𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝘃𝘀. 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆. One is your CV – achievements, titles, the ladder climbed. The other lives in struggle, failure, and the moments that have truly shaped you.
▪️𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴. Giving yourself permission to ask for help isn't weakness – it's the first and best step toward real growth.
▪️𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗺𝘆𝘁𝗵, 𝗽𝗼𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸. They bypass the masculine reflex to solve and compete, creating space for genuine presence and self‑awareness.

Will has moved away from the term toxic masculinity – instead, he speaks of shifting the masculine mind. This episode is a compassionate, challenging guide to what that shift looks like in practice.
