Games Meet the Future of Leadership and LearningFrom play to purpose
Play is not just entertainment; it’s a laboratory for human growth.
This talk invites the audience to see how the worlds of gaming and professional life overlap, showing how players develop resilience, teamwork, and strategic thinking through games.
Understanding this connection helps educators, leaders, and institutions prepare for the next generation of learners and professionals.
