Is your team facing any of these challenges?
Are difficult conversations being sidestepped because nobody wants to "rock the boat"?
Is accountability a game of hot potato where nobody's quite sure who owns what when something doesn't get done?
Are people defending their silos instead of pulling together toward the bigger picture?
Does your team nod along in meetings but nothing really changes afterward?
If you answered yes to any of these questions…
Strategic play builds trust teams can count on
No sports team gets good by sitting in a conference room talking about the game.
They practice. They run plays when the pressure's off so they're ready when it's on.
Your team works the same way.
We use roleplaying games to give your team the practice time they need, so they can perform when it matters: navigating tough conversations, making decisions together, practicing leadership, working across silos, and collaborating with different personality types.
In each session, they step into a story where it's safe to speak up, make calls without perfect information, and trust their teammates to come through.
The stakes are low enough to practice what they haven't felt ready to try yet and build critical skills while having fun.
"It’s paradoxical that a little bit of ‘nonproductive’ activity can make one enormously more productive."
- Stuart Brown, M.D., National Institute for Play

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATOR
Laura Khalil
Laura Khalil (KUH-lil) spent years helping top tech companies tell better brand stories, leading messaging for GE, Intel, Twitter, and Intuit.
But no matter the company, she kept noticing the same pattern: smart, capable product teams stuck in meetings without momentum. Everyone working hard, but not working together.
The issue wasn’t strategy or skills. It was trust.
Strategic play builds the trust muscle in ways other tools can’t. It gives teams a safe, shared experience where new habits form naturally and transfer seamlessly back to the real world.
Today, Laura helps teams build trust through immersive, story-driven experiences that spark real collaboration. Her sessions blend game design, behavioral science, and a deep understanding of team dynamics to create something trust falls and workshops alone can’t — lasting change that actually feels good to practice.
