Being Grateful
playmeo launched in 2012, and its continued success would not have been possible without the work and support of many dozens of people worldwide.
In particular, we say a big thank-you to the following groups & people.
Founder & CEO
Mark Collard created playmeo out of a burning desire to share his enthusiasm and expertise for fun, interactive group games & activities with educators and program leaders all over the world. He drives the innovation behind playmeo and manages an awesome team of equally enthusiastic experts to help him get stuff done.
Subscriber Support
Jade is laser-focused on delighting & helping playmeo subscribers succeed. She is often one of the first contacts users have with playmeo, answering questions & directing them to the resources they need. She’s an organisational whiz & is responsible for managing many tasks that benefit our subscribers.
Online Presence
The team at EPIC (Asher & Nick) are responsible for the overall development, look & feel of the site, including the wonderful colour palette. They handle all of the hard, technical stuff Mark doesn’t know how to do & make it look simple. Thankfully, we share an affection for great coffee & awesome websites.
Illustrations
Over the years Anna & Rodrigo have deciphered hundreds of Mark’s dodgy-looking hand-sketched stick figures and diagrams to bless playmeo with an abundance of illustrations that capture the essence and fun of every activity. I hope you agree that their family of little characters bring the activities alive.
Video Tutorials
Marek, David & Fiona have sat through literally 100s of hours of video footage to bring you the edited versions of all the videos, including the latest Lazy Facilitator episodes. Only the best bits got through. Big thanks to my wife, too, for holding the camera so steady for hours on end to capture many of these moments.
playmeo App
One of the simplest ways to access playmeo’s resources is via our app. Mohammad managed this task with ease, making it super-easy for everyone with a smartphone to access all of our free stuff, adding a login portal for our subscribers, too. It’s a fast, lightweight app that is available on iOS and Android.
Artificial Intelligence
Brian is the brains behind Flow AI, our unique AI-assisted programming tool. He’s taken my facilitation frameworks and turned them into something genuinely useful – an expert advisor in our subscribers’ pockets. Thankfully, Brian speaks fluent AI and human, which makes the hard, clever stuff look effortless.
