Adaptability

In 2023, Holly Clark showed us that the
power of play is an essential and
valuable aspect of the learning
experience, revealing how it can spark
creativity, deepen understanding, and
foster meaningful connections.

Holly demonstrated that play goes
beyond mere enjoyment - it cultivates
curiosity, encourages problem-solving,
and builds critical skills that enhance
learning and personal growth.

By integrating play into our lives, we can
unlock new ways of thinking and
approach challenges with a sense of
curiosity and resilience.

The Power of Play

In 2019, Carl Hooker showed us how to
take risks and explore future
possibilities by embracing both
successes and failures. He
demonstrated that while risks may lead
to setbacks, these failures are
opportunities for learning and growth.

Cultural fears of mistakes often
emphasize perfection, but Carl
reminded us that perfection is an
illusion. True progress comes from
acknowledging missteps and using
them as stepping stones for innovation.

By adopting this mindset, we unlock
the courage to take risks, adapt, and
thrive in an ever-changing world.
