Along with being president of Business Works I fill in the gaps as an instructor for UC Davis. The training evaluations, reference, listed below are from 4 separate 1-day workshops delivered to Sacramento County DHHS workers, June 2013, through UC Davis. I created the workshops, "How to Work as a Team" using the Workplace Enrichment interactive model.

"If employees are having fun they won't get any work done!" – a thought to ponder but one that is easily dismissed. What if our aim was to fulfill our responsibilities while having fun at work; how could this happen?
No doubt, attempts to have fun at work include extracurricular activities like parties or tournaments which have their place but are indeed diversions from our projects at work. The best way to create a workplace that's fun to be at is to somehow interweave enjoyment into the day-to-day operations.
It makes sense to create a loving world, flourishing with peace and joy. But with our jobs, obligations and general routine, who has the time or energy to create a loving world?
Why not create a loving world while practicing it at work?
Let's face it, we have to go to work to pay our bills. It takes up a lot of our time and if given the opportunity most people would rather be doing something else. The good news is that we get paid to be there.
Why not get paid to create a loving world?
