I’m Vanya, co-founder of PlayInnové. I’m dedicated to transforming workplaces into environments where creativity and innovation thrive. At PlayInnové, we empower organizations to evolve by fostering adaptability, engagement, and creative thinking through dynamic workshops, team-building strategies, and consulting services tailored to each client’s unique needs. With certifications in LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methods, facilities operations, and sustainability, I bring a diverse skill set to every engagement, blending structured facilitation with a deep understanding of what drives team dynamics and effective collaboration. I have witnessed the impact that creative play and open dialogue can have on teams—unlocking potential, enhancing communication, and driving meaningful change. My approach is hands-on and interactive, guiding teams through experiences that range from strategic LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® sessions to innovative problem-solving with creative tools like watercolors and clay. I believe in the power of play to break down barriers, spark new ideas, and create an inclusive culture where every voice is heard.
