About us. 

 

We can't help it, we look at business challenges differently. 

 

Fairplay started when educators and content creators from the famed Second City Theater partnered with  researchers, organizational psychologists and learning designers to make professional development better, more engaging and more effective.

Like it or not, there's no script for life. (Actually, we kind of like it.)

How We're Different

We Start With Listening

Your business, your objectives and your people are the North star for us. 

Minimum Design For Max Impact

Too many learning programs are over-designed. We keep the content shorter, sharper and more engaging for an attention-starved workforce.

Everyday, actionable insights

We connect everything to the on-the-job actions and behaviors you hope to see in the next 30 days. 

 

 

Big Picture Thinking

We practice and encourage systems thinking so that participants are connected to the bigger picture - busting siloes and building strategic thinking

Our Team

We can't wait for you to get to know our creative ensemble of researchers, learning designers, writers, project managers and master facilitators.
