Improv comedy is an amazing tool for developing team building, leadership, sales and customer service skills. But why take our word for it. We recently presented a show and workshops for medical professionals at Columbia Presbyterian University Hospital.
“…one of the best workshops ever…”
Hi Walt, A belated HUGE thank you! I so quickly added this resources to our course website mid-workshop and meant to go back and thank you later, and hadn’t. I think this was one of the best workshops ever. The energy on Sunday was still super high, and everyone remained engaged – and the discussion you had about psychological safety found its way into all of our conversations for the rest of the weekend. We also did our usual closing activity (stand in a circle and co-construct a poem) and related it to how it’s similar and different to improv and how some of these techniques can be used in different settings. SO much came out of this weekend, and I presented this to our directors and how this connection of modalities was so incredible and how you came with so much background and information to help me understand it as well as just leading an incredibly fun time. I also found myself (not as successfully as you though) trying to use “Taxi!” to get everyone’s attention through the rest of the weekend too, which I enjoyed 🙂 Thank you so much again – I hope there will be more to come with this as we’re still processing how many things arose this weekend with the help of you and your team.
