Barometer XP

This Thanksgiving, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the power of connection and gratitude in the workplace. At Barometer XP, we believe that creating spaces where teams can collaborate, play, and grow together builds more than just great workplaces—it builds communities where people feel valued and supported. We’re thankful for the incredible teams and organizations that have trusted us to bring play and experiential learning into their cultures this year. Watching teams unlock their potential, strengthen relationships, and tackle challenges together has been truly inspiring. As we gather with loved ones or reflect on what we’re grateful for, let’s not forget the small moments of kindness and connection that make a difference every day—whether at work or at home. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Barometer XP! ?? (And if you’re ready to bring some joy and connection to your team in the new year, we’d love to connect.)

Whether it’s improving trust, enhancing communication, or boosting morale, we use play to unlock potential and inspire progress. Ready to see what play can do for your organization?

With just two weeks’ notice, a top Atlanta company reached out to Barometer XP for a game-changing retreat. Their goal? Equip 120 leaders to master constructive feedback in a high-stakes, high-pressure environment. Our session combined the Radical Candor model with dynamic, Taskmaster-style challenges. Kicking off with Climate Reading to foster reflection, we guided participants through alternating roles as players and observers. This approach helped them spot patterns, practice giving feedback, and learn new ways to engage. Their insights speak to the impact: “Seeing through an observer’s lens before reacting was powerful.” “Consistency in feedback cadence and style is key.” “Using play to practice feedback made learning engaging and memorable.” Excited to explore how we can elevate your team? Let’s chat!
