Improvisation is the most critical skill you can have in business today. Listening, adaptability, seizing opportunity, thinking on your feet and supporting your co-workers are all vital elements to your professional success. Improvisation is not simply about being funny. It’s about heightened communication and a focus on how to react in the moments that truly matter. Improv and comedy are not synonymous. Improv skills can be used in life and work to create smarter ways to communicate. In this 6 week series we will cover these concepts:
- Better Listening
- Creating opportunity
- Empowering yourself and others
- Building Trust and Connecting with others
- Delivering with Confidence
- Dealing with Conflict and Failure
The same skills that improv actors use on stage are the same skills you need in business to be successful and happy. There is a huge gap in soft skills training in the workplace. Companies like Google, Farmer’s Insurance, Zappo’s and IBM have all integrated improvisational training and philosophies into their companies. To be innovative in today’s business world, you have to get an edge. Improv skills are the newest weapon in business today.
