| rsidneysmith | Q1: Do you currently feel like there’s play or fun at work? Describe. #prodchat http://t.co/WSe3FWOdJW | 9/4/2015 01:05 |
| MorrisOrganizer | Morris Organizers here! We love all things productive….and organized! #ProdChat | 9/4/2015 01:05 |
| rsidneysmith | A1: I feel like I have a lot of fun at work, but not the kind of “work + play” that there could be. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:06 |
| rsidneysmith | @MorrisOrganizer Hi there, Russ! Thanks for joining #prodchat today! | 9/4/2015 01:06 |
| halduauthor | A1: I don’t really have a place that I work right now, most everything is done from home… #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:07 |
| rsidneysmith | A1: My point is, I’d like to add more play into our work. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:07 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Do you self-organize your work with play? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:08 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith I always have a good time #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:08 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Oh, I have no doubt you do! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:09 |
| halduauthor | I don’t know about play, but whenever I have had a job with coworkers in the same space we have always had fun #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:09 |
| rsidneysmith | Q2: What are some of the positive reasons for having play at work? #prodchat http://t.co/U6hGQ0hX25 | 9/4/2015 01:10 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor That’s great to hear! I’m not sure most people can say that; I would love it to be the case. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:10 |
| MorrisOrganizer | A1: We find our projects move much faster when we can make our clients laugh. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:11 |
| rsidneysmith | A2: The obvious one–greater productivity!#prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:12 |
| halduauthor | A2: friends work better together. Friendship is not built around a conference table unless settlers of catan is in the middle #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:13 |
| rsidneysmith | A2: Teams have greater cohesion when they play together also; therefore, less conflict and greater employee retention. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:13 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith life is what you make it, so make it a party #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:13 |
| rsidneysmith | @MorrisOrganizer That’s great! I’m sure more “flow” can be achieved when work is closer to play. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:14 |

| halduauthor | Hey #prodchat peeps! Did you forget what time it is? @IsaPinaud @ArtGelwicks @nmhouston @cooperjohnj @macbikegeek @skinikini1 we miss you! | 9/4/2015 01:15 |
| rsidneysmith | A2: I think clients don’t necessarily see you having fun but they benefit with better customer service interactions. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:16 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor I miss @profkrg @LizFurl @lewisjasona @MarkDealMBA @LoisMarketing too! #prodchat 😉 | 9/4/2015 01:18 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Oh, I forgot about @Christine_Chen6 and @ChristinKardos! Some of my favorite tweetchatters are MIA! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:19 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith what about @bojandordevic and @michgunn and @apinaud? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:19 |
| rsidneysmith | Q3: What are some of the potential pitfalls of having work and play mixed? #prodchat http://t.co/UnQaZFPvGF | 9/4/2015 01:20 |
| MorrisOrganizer | A2: Lightening the mood during difficult situations makes everything easier to bear #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:20 |
| ChristinKardos | @rsidneysmith @halduauthor @Christine_Chen6 Oh, Ray!! I miss you, friend. Sorry!!. Prepping for a chat that I’m helping with. :/ #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:20 |

| rsidneysmith | @ChristinKardos @halduauthor @Christine_Chen6 Not to worry! Good to hear from you though! Have a great tweetchat! 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:21 |
| rsidneysmith | A3: People can lose sight of appropriateness, perhaps? Being too off-color or disrespectful, even without meaning it. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:22 |
| martinlieberman | @rsidneysmith For one thing, play becomes work. 🙁 Like my friends in Hollywood say, it’s called Show BUSINESS for a reason. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:22 |
| rsidneysmith | @martinlieberman That’s true, Martin! People need to know when play needs to end and work needs to begin sometimes! A3 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:23 |
| IsaPinaud | Hello #prodchat …I’m Isabel, I’m busy and I’m late #worstintroductionever 😛 | 9/4/2015 01:23 |
| rsidneysmith | @martinlieberman How’re you today, Martin? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:23 |
| halduauthor | A3: too much play cause productivity to ↘️ #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:24 |
| IsaPinaud | My greatest productivity success this week was finishing up all of my #RetoMantra dares 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:24 |
| martinlieberman | @rsidneysmith Doing very well. First week at a new job. Saw your tweets, thought I’d jump in for a sec. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:24 |
| MorrisOrganizer | A3: Questioning your credibility. Some clients may interpret your laughter while working as distraction #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:24 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud Isabel! How’re you? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:24 |
| halduauthor | @IsaPinaud don’t even know what that is #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| IsaPinaud | A1 Yes, I thoroughly enjoy what I do and why I’m doing it 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| rsidneysmith | @martinlieberman Congrats on the new job, Martin! Glad you could jump in and join us! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| IsaPinaud | A2 Play helps creativity out! It opens up your brain to make new connections #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud You’ll have to explain #RetoMantra for us at some point. 😉 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @MorrisOrganizer: A1: We find our projects move much faster when we can make our clients laugh. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:25 |
| martinlieberman | @rsidneysmith Thanks. 🙂 Happy to be here, however briefly. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| IsaPinaud | A3 People might not take the job seriously and of course people can get distracted easier #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| MorrisOrganizer | @rsidneysmith Nothing halts progress in a meeting like someone crossing the line with a joke or innuendo! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith Doing okay 🙂 You? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| halduauthor | I went to an interview the other day, there was a rockband set in the front room #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| rsidneysmith | @MorrisOrganizer Yeah, if a client has work environs without play themselves they can also resent you laughing or enjoying work. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:26 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud Oh, I’m doing great! It’s been an active and productive week. Hoping it ends as strongly! 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:27 |
| IsaPinaud | @halduauthor It’s an entrepreneurship program I was recently accepted to participate in 🙂 I’ll pm you with more info #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:27 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor That’s pretty awesome! Who plays in the rockband? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:27 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith I would be glad to do so 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:27 |
| martinlieberman | @MorrisOrganizer No joke, I once worked somewhere where it was sport to see how many times you could add TWSS to a meeting. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:27 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith Stay positive and it totally will 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:28 |
| halduauthor | @IsaPinaud awesome #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:28 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith idk, nobody was playing it while I was there #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:28 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor In that vein, my brother showed up at the office to find this on their wall! #prodchat http://t.co/Uno4Jq4jAI | 9/4/2015 01:29 |
| martinlieberman | Not everyone’s job is fun. So those who aren’t enjoying themselves at work often resent those of us who are. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:29 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Maybe it was a prop! They had it installed just for your interview! 😉 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:29 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @halduauthor: @IsaPinaud awesome #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:29 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud Yes, I’m totally sure it will end strong! :)) #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:29 |
| rsidneysmith | Q4: What are some activities that can combine work and play well? #prodchat http://t.co/yI6uFBdguM | 9/4/2015 01:30 |
| rsidneysmith | @martinlieberman This is so true, at times. “Why can he or she have fun when I cannot?” #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:30 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith there is an office on campus here at BYU that always does pixel art with sticky notes like that #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:30 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith @halduauthor A W E S O M E #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:31 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor @IsaPinaud Yeah, it’s a thing! http://t.co/R6Acn8d03P #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:31 |
| halduauthor | @martinlieberman but nearly all jobs can be fun withy the right attitude #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:32 |
| martinlieberman | @rsidneysmith I used to go to some really fun conferences. Coworkers thought they were boondoggles more than legit events. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:32 |
| martinlieberman | @halduauthor Totally agree! I always try to make the most of any job. Why work somewhere you don’t enjoy being? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:32 |
| rsidneysmith | A4: March Madness office pools are an example of work and play. It builds team camaraderie even if people aren’t into basketball. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:32 |
| rsidneysmith | A4: I think any team-building exercise *well executed* can be a great combination of work and play. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:32 |
| IsaPinaud | A4Your biggest asset is your team…so brainstorming, team building, & other strategic activities are a good work/play combination #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:33 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @rsidneysmith: @halduauthor @IsaPinaud Yeah, it’s a thing! http://t.co/R6Acn8d03P #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:33 |
| MorrisOrganizer | A4: We try to make benign, fun games of monotonous tasks. “What could you make with this?” is one of our favorites #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:34 |

| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud Yes! All great examples, Isabel! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:34 |

| IsaPinaud | @MorrisOrganizer I am loving this company! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:35 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @rsidneysmith: @IsaPinaud Yes! All great examples, Isabel! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:35 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Somehow that sounds devious coming from you, Ben. 😛 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:35 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith really? Why? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:36 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Yeah yeah. That halo will turn to a purple devil in a heartbeat. 😛 #prankster #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:37 |
| halduauthor | We have a dart board in the grad lab #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:37 |
| rsidneysmith | A4: I was a 70th anniv. roast a few weekends ago and I heard some hilarious pranks on the exec. director. We were in tears. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:37 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith @halduauthor Do you really have to ask why? Hahaha 😛 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:37 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud @halduauthor ‘xactly! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:38 |

| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor I have a basketball hoop on one of my office doors…and *lots* of mini-basketballs. #NotAGreatShot #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:38 |
| rsidneysmith | Q5: How can you convince leaders, managers and coworkers to incorporate play at work? #prodchat http://t.co/fbILZNgenw | 9/4/2015 01:40 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor I think I’d like a dart board better. #thinking #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:40 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith darts are fun. Ours is just a little magnet one #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:40 |
| IsaPinaud | A5: Have you heard of intrapreneuship? Yes, with an “i” #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:41 |
| rsidneysmith | A5: I’d use examples of great companies who have play at the heart of their work: Google, Yahoo, etc. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:41 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor I’d have to get something similar to my basketball setup that is practically silent. I don’t want to disturb people. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:41 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud When I’m nervous about young people being the future of the world, I am always calmed knowing you’re among them! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:42 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith yahoo is a great company? Who did they buy this time? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:42 |

| MorrisOrganizer | A5: Lead by example comes to mind. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:43 |
| IsaPinaud | @rsidneysmith That is one of the sweetest things anyone has ever said to me. Thanks Ray 🙂 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:43 |

| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor They’re gaining in SE traffic…that speaks for something. They’re not going away anytime soon. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:44 |
| IsaPinaud | A5b Just In Case… intrapreneurship is being and entrepreneur within an organization. Helping your workplace change from within #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:44 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud You’re most deserving and welcome, Isabel! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:44 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @MorrisOrganizer: A5: Lead by example comes to mind. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:44 |
| rsidneysmith | @MorrisOrganizer Yes! If you model it, they will buy in. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:45 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith no I don’t think they are going away, just that great is not the adjective I would use… #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:45 |
| MorrisOrganizer | A5: Being proactive about starting up a game or conversation with co-workers takes some of the pressure off of them. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:46 |
| rsidneysmith | A5: I’d demonstrate the financial and productivity benefits. Money speaks, and when you can see how incorporating play pays. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:46 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @rsidneysmith: @IsaPinaud You’re most deserving and welcome, Isabel! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:46 |

| rsidneysmith | @lewisjasona @gtdnyc did a discussion all about @omnifocus, yes. It was a great demo session! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:47 |
| MorrisOrganizer | @rsidneysmith Yes – money always talks! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:47 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor They were great once…and it wasn’t that play made them fall from grace. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:47 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith @MorrisOrganizer *much #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:47 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor Actually, I would argue that more, better play could have fostered more innovation and saved them. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:48 |
| mcraegj | @IsaPinaud Actually that is just being an effective leader. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:48 |
| rsidneysmith | @MorrisOrganizer Oh, that makes me want to start up a lunchtime Words With Friends playoff weekly! Hehe. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:49 |

| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith I don’t disagree with that #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:49 |
| IsaPinaud | @mcraegj Yes, but most people think they can’t be 1 because they are not the “boss” *change boss for any other word like manager* #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:49 |
| rsidneysmith | Q6: What ideas have you taken from today that you might try to bring more work and play together? #prodchat http://t.co/VUgUXBV7ge | 9/4/2015 01:50 |
| halduauthor | @mcraegj @IsaPinaud but big words sound way cooler #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:50 |
| rsidneysmith | @lewisjasona Unfortunately, we don’t record meetings. However, maybe an @omnifocus Productivity Cafe (Google HOA) next month? #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:51 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud @mcraegj Yes, intrapreneurship is about inspiring/empowering leadership within an organization. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:51 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith @MorrisOrganizer I own at that game, I use to be able to say I never lost, but then I did… #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:51 |
| mcraegj | @IsaPinaud Those are likely they people who will not be a leader regardless of the word. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud @mcraegj You’re giving them the toolbox of an entrepreneur to bring innovation within or for the organization. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| IsaPinaud | A6 On Monday I was elected the Financial Director of my MUN Delegation. #prodchat 1/2 | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| mcraegj | @halduauthor @IsaPinaud lol or just daft #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| IsaPinaud | A6 The BOD is meeting tomorrow and I will definitely include play within our teaching curriculum #prodchat 2/2 | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| rsidneysmith | @halduauthor @MorrisOrganizer The automated player and two of my friends are the only ones who can beat me at WWF. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:52 |
| IsaPinaud | @halduauthor @mcraegj Hahaha 😛 #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:53 |
| IsaPinaud | RT @rsidneysmith: @IsaPinaud @mcraegj Yes, intrapreneurship is about inspiring/empowering leadership within an organization. #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:53 |
| halduauthor | @mcraegj @IsaPinaud idk, language is very powerful. It is the symbolic system by which we make sense of the world #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:53 |
| rsidneysmith | @IsaPinaud Congratulations, and that’s a fantastic opportunity to bring a bit of play to work! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:53 |
| halduauthor | @rsidneysmith @MorrisOrganizer so far #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:54 |
| mcraegj | @rsidneysmith @IsaPinaud All orgs need both leaders & followers and often we don’t praise the followers with a fancy new word! #prodchat | 9/4/2015 01:54 |
