Players move around the board once, then progress up their designated ladder to the center space. How many spaces a player moves (forward or backward) is determined by the instructions on the card that's drawn. As such, this is not a game focused on strategy and winning, but rather on communication and conversation. \u003c!--StartFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf0\"\u003eTeams are encouraged to collaboratively create \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf1\"\u003e3–5 achievable, practical action initiatives (policies, behaviors, or practices) customized to the organization. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pf0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf0\"\u003eThe results of game play have been goal-setting collaborations that reduce turnover, increase productivity, and make your workplace “the place to be.” Company Culture game players have been known to devise \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cf0\"\u003enew policies, revise vision and mission statements, streamline processes, and initiate charitable contributions in the community. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHOW TO PLAY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a6ff78 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-6 per board are recommended, though you can set up team play\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTime\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 minutes to an hour or more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSetup\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roll the die to see if each participant will play from the perspective of a \"Salaried\" or \"Hourly\" worker.

Calm Cards give you a fast, credible way to help them get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDeveloped by Holstee with nervous-system specialist Jonny Miller, each of the 45 cards distills one evidence-based practice — breathwork, somatic techniques, mindfulness, reflection — into something a person can actually do in two to five minutes. The through-line is real physiology: these practices help activate the parasympathetic \"rest-and-digest\" response, ease the cortisol surge that comes with fight-flight-freeze, and bring the thinking brain back online. Which is exactly the state you want people in before you ask them to learn, collaborate, or lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe deck sorts into five entry points — \u003cstrong\u003eBody, Awareness, Emotions, Connection, and Reflection\u003c\/strong\u003e — so you can match the practice to the moment instead of hoping one generic \"take a breath\" works for everyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e45 practices on oversized 4\" × 6\" cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFive categories: Body, Awareness, Emotions, Connection, Reflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSoft-touch box that travels well and lives easily on a desk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFolded guide with five core principles and a plain-language glossary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBonus access to Jonny Miller's guided-audio app for practices you can extend beyond the room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003ePut them to work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResilience training.\u003c\/strong\u003e Resilience isn't the absence of stress — it's how fast you recover from it. Have participants use the \u003cem\u003eAwareness\u003c\/em\u003e cards to name their own early warning signs, then build a personal \"reset kit\" of three or four \u003cem\u003eBody\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003eEmotion\u003c\/em\u003e cards they'll genuinely reach for. In a multi-session program, revisit the kit each time: what did they actually use, what worked, what do they swap in? You're teaching recovery as a trainable skill, not a mindset poster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStress management.\u003c\/strong\u003e Skip the lecture on the amygdala and let them feel it instead. Deal a \u003cem\u003eBody\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003eAwareness\u003c\/em\u003e card to each table, give everyone three minutes to try the practice, then debrief: what shifted, what didn't, what surprised you? The physiology teaches itself. Leave cards on the tables as between-session resets, or send people home with one to test-drive before the next module.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTeam building \u0026amp; leadership.\u003c\/strong\u003e The \u003cem\u003eConnection\u003c\/em\u003e cards are built for co-regulation — and a team that can down-shift together handles conflict and pressure far better than one that can't. Use a draw-and-share card as a meeting or workshop check-in ritual. For leaders, the move is modeling: open a high-stakes conversation with a grounding practice, and coach them to read their own state \u003cem\u003ebefore\u003c\/em\u003e they react.
