Reimagining Workplace Culture Through Play-Based Learning
The Problem
Most corporate trainings are forgettable. They're top-down, disconnected from real team challenges, and leave people feeling like they’ve checked a box—not grown together.
Culture Energized is different. We focus on shared experiences, practical tools, and meaningful conversations that help teams build skills and trust—together.
What Our Training Helps Teams Do
Collaborate across differences
Learn how to value diverse perspectives, communicate across styles, and build psychological safety.
Move through conflict with curiosity and care
Develop the awareness on bias and communication tools to navigate tension, not avoid it.
Build meaningful, trust-based connections
Strengthen team relationships through shared experience, reflection, and authentic dialogue.
Practice inclusive, people-centered leadership
Equip leaders at every level with skills to engage, empower, and support their teams.
Why Our Team Culture Trainings Are Different
In a time when DEI&B is being questioned or rolled back, one thing remains clear: people do their best work when they feel safe, valued, and supported.
Yet even with the best intentions, many DEI&B trainings move too quickly into complex conversations—before people have the chance to connect, build trust, or feel grounded in a shared understanding. Without that foundation, real growth becomes harder to access.
That’s why at Culture Energized, we intentionally begin with relationship-building, psychological safety, and shared language. When people feel supported and connected, they’re more prepared to engage in discomfort with curiosity, resilience, and empathy—and that’s where meaningful culture change begins.
Our Team Culture trainings are strategically designed to build on one another, helping teams:
-
Develop shared language and understanding
-
Increase self-awareness and cultural humility
-
Strengthen communication and collaboration
-
Foster a sense of safety and belonging
Equip your team with tools to collaborate better, lead with empathy, and shift culture—from the inside out.

Each Training Includes...
Training Prework
Some trainings include optional or recommended pre-work—like short readings, videos, or interactive quizzes—to help participants build context and arrive ready to dive in. These materials are designed to spark curiosity and lay the groundwork for a more meaningful session.
Participant Resource book
Each participant receives a digital workbook designed to keep the learning alive. These interactive guides include self-reflection prompts, definitions, hands-on activities, and practical strategies—used during and after the training to help participants apply what they’ve learned in real time.
Pre & Post Surveys
We believe learning is most impactful when it’s personal and relevant. That’s why we start with a short pre-survey—to better understand your team’s challenges, strengths, and goals. These insights help us customize the session and focus on what matters most to your people.
Group Management Trainings
Equip youth professionals with the structure, tools, and confidence to lead groups with clarity and purpose. Working with kids and teens can be incredibly rewarding—but also unpredictable. Whether you’re running a classroom, leading camp activities, or facilitating after-school programs, group dynamics can shift fast. This training gives staff practical strategies to keep things running smoothly, respond to behavior with intention, and create group experiences that are engaging, consistent, and inclusive. Participants will walk away with a toolbox of real-world techniques they can apply immediately—and a renewed sense of clarity about their role as a leader. Best For: • Youth-serving staff, educators, rec leaders, and camp teams • Program managers looking to build consistency and leadership skills across teams • Anyone responsible for guiding, supervising, or supporting groups of young people
