High Impact Corporate Training

We start every educational workshop (and many of our murder mystery shows that require a bit of improv from the guests) with our three #1 concepts:

• Our #1 Rule HAVE FUN but never at another’s expense. Lead with a smile, and include everyone in your game. We create a fun safe space for all to play and thrive!
• #1 Rule in Improv YES AND…. Always say YES AND… follow up with words and actions to support the team. We focus on making oir team look amazing. We can let go of ego and insecurity because the whole team has our back. Ego & Insecurity destroys team, focus, sales, leadership, creativity and so much more.
• #1 Skill in Comedy: LISTENING Listen with your eyes. Listen with the willingness to change!

Improv Comedy is a ton of fun and a powerful for leadership, team building, sales, customer service skills and more. Simply playing these games creates presentation ninjas as well as empathetic collaborators.

IMPROV WORKSHOP

IMPROV WORKSHOPS are amazing tools to develop strong teams and leaders, replacing 1000s of books and lectures that merely discuss concepts, goals and techniques. Simply playing these games develops creativity, critical thinking, public speaking, self confidence, self awareness, listening, focus and more. We teach all to replace ego and insecurities with simple choices, active listening and supporting team. These are all cornerstones of “YES! And…” the #1 governing principle behind Improvisation. YES AND… Improv is also the best route to Psychological Safety, the #1 factor in Team Success. The #1 skill in comedy is LISTENING, which is also the #1 factor in a good leader. We use a version of these workshops to train team building, leadership, sales, customer service, conflict resolution, professional development for teachers, medical staff and more. Ideal for 5 to 30 participants, this workshop fits anywhere your team can stand in a circle including a small conference room or private home.
