The Four Freedoms of Play
Textos extrets de: plush&nuggets
Freedom to Experiment
“The freedom to fail is one of the hottest competencies of the century. Failing quickly and making mistakes is a learning process that allows us to get better. Hence, when we play, the freedom to fail is a core element that lets us enter a magic circle where the rules are different from those of the real world. It allows us to build up our own stories and suggest ideas that wouldn’t sound good or appropriate in another context. The freedom to fail leads a group to discuss frankly. It also helps suggesting ideas out of the box without any fear as all the real world consequences don’t exist in the context of play. In other words, it is a great ground for experimentation. Although, failure can be difficult and integrating playfulness is a nice way to learn to deal with it with joy!”
Freedom to Fail
“Having the freedom to fail leads to more experimentation. In fact, when freed from real life consequences and rules, we are more likely and enthusiastic to test new things. And in a business environment making new connections, developing a problem or building a solution are processes and outcomes that are part of experimentation.”
Freedom to Try on Identities
“Embodying another identity is the third freedom of play. Of course, it can mean embodying a superhero, a villain or a family member. For instance in a business environnement, it can also be embodying your client, your customers, another inspiring company or your colleagues. Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes is a great way to take a different perspective on a topic, generate ideas and create empathy.”
Freedom of Effort
“And last but not least is the Freedom to effort. It is not the more intuitive freedom when we talk about play because play is usually associated with enjoyment. However, there is no play if there is no challenge (or at least it will quickly become boring). And this is very interesting when we observe people play at work, they almost don’t talk about fun. Some intense play time requires engagement and effort, and brings the best rewards!”
