‘How to Play. And Achieve Your Business Goals’
Yuen Yen has worked 10+ years for the national government of The Netherlands, while holding creative positions as serious game consultant. Designing and implementing digital games to support learning journeys.
Having applied games and play in an Arabic-speaking working context with judges and directors from the Middle East and Northern Africa has convinced her of the universal, innate language of play. And motivated her to continue her own explorative journey.
Working as design thinking facilitator once again she approaches ‘play and working professionals’ with a beginner’s mind. Again. And this time exploring the fuzzy association between play and leadership.

As a transformer for thriving people and (work)spaces, I’ve learned that happiness@work (a.k.a. work pleasure) is not an oxymoron! It’s essential to help your employees become the best version of themselves. It’s not a state of ‘jumping for joy’; it’s the sum total of 4 pillars called PERK: Purpose, Engagement, Resilience, and Kindness.
I am certified as: Stress Counselor | Happiness @ Work Coach | Foundations of Positive Psychology, Univ. of Penn |Science of Well-being, Yale Univ. | Skogsfloating Trainer | Sleep coach | NLP Master Practitioner | HeartMath Resiliency Coach. All add to my mastery of the skills and knowledge needed to thrive.
My early career, with a specialty in cardiovascular diagnostics as a Military Nursing Officer in the Canadian Armed Forces, has further supported me.
In addition, I have spent 6 years on the PWN (Professional Women’s Network) Netherlands Board and have been a member for 11 years. DEI is especially important to me.
My Belief? With the proper knowledge & tools, we all can improve our resiliency to what life brings onto our path AND thrive in life.
My Goals? Creating waves of personal well-being awareness, so that the individual within an organization makes the right choices for themselves. Ensuring that inclusive leadership occurs in my life-time! Sometimes a ripple can have far-reaching effects.
My Values and Character Strengths? resilient (of course!); dependable; perseverance; honesty; humor; love of learning; curiousity; equality; grateful
#livingfrommyheart (while being navigated by my brain!)
