Why it is difficult to play for adults? CoVE & business matchmaking, creativity and playfulness

Why is it difficult for adults to play?
For adults, it “requires a realignment of your mental orientation and this may challenge old habits” (Blatner & Blatner, 1997, p. xix). A primary adult habit that thwarts play is self-control, “acting mature.” From a young age they were told not to act like children. In this session you will experience how you can use playfullness and creativity for CoVE development and matchmaking. You will experience various workformats that you can use within your own CoVE, for instance to involve SME and teachers, and at the same time you will meet many other CoVEs!
