What if I told you that a simple deck of cards could unlock your team's hidden potential in just 60 minutes? 

That's exactly what happened to over 250,000 professionals across 39 countries when they discovered a proven system that creates lasting transformation in just 60 minutes.

Hi, I'm Stephen, and after watching countless talented speakers deliver polished performances that fade away with the applause, I knew teams deserved better. They needed real transformation that sticks.

That's why I created Personality Poker—not as another keynote that fades with the applause, but as a full-body experience that helps teams discover their collective genius and continues driving innovation long after I leave the stage.

Valuable for CEOs and Everyone in the Organization

“I’ve been using Personality Poker for the 13 years I’ve served as CEO –it’s an invaluable tool that has helped me choose high-performing teams to execute on critical projects and initiatives. 'Playing the game' helps all of us identify our strengths and weaknesses, fosters better collaboration and truly supports our culture of innovation.”

 —  Eric Dickson, MD, President and CEO, UMass Memorial Health

The Personality Poker Experience

Personality Poker is an interactive game that uses proprietary playing cards. They look like regular playing cards, with one exception: each card also has a word that describes a particular behavior. The 52-card deck features unique words like "creative," "analytical," "organized," and "empathetic".

Through strategic gameplay, teams discover:

How others truly perceive them

Their preferred innovation styles 

Hidden blind spots that limit success

Missing elements in their team dynamics

Natural collaborators they might otherwise avoid

In Personality Poker, the suits, colors, and numbers all have special meaning.


Personality Poker cards are exclusively available for participants in my keynotes and workshops

This isn't just theory—it's backed by implementation in over 100 Fortune 1000 companies and validated by organizational behavior experts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from traditional personality assessments?
Unlike static assessments that people quickly forget, Personality Poker creates an interactive experience that sticks. The physical cards become daily tools for better collaboration, while the gaming dynamics create stronger connections for lasting change.

What if some team members are resistant to "games" in a professional setting?
The beauty of Personality Poker is that it quickly transitions from feeling like a game to revealing profound insights about team dynamics. Even the most skeptical participants typically become engaged when they see their colleagues having breakthrough moments about collaboration styles.

How do you ensure the learning continues after you leave? 
Every participant receives their own deck of Personality Poker cards and access to our exclusive training program. Teams can immediately apply these tools to real workplace challenges, ensuring the insights become part of your daily collaboration culture. For organizations who want to go deeper, we offer “Personality Poker All-In,” a follow-up program designed to create a culture of innovation and collaboration.

What's the ideal group size? 
Personality Poker works effectively with groups from 10 to 1,000+. The experience scales seamlessly while maintaining its interactive and personalized nature. For groups with less than twenty participants, we often use a special version of the game that focuses on the gifting of cards.

What industries is this best for?
Any organization that values collaboration, innovation, and team performance. Personality Poker has been used by Fortune 500 companies, startups, and everything in between.

Is Personality Poker just a fun activity, or does it have real business value?
