Post-WFH Improv
Include us in your hybrid or in-person plans.
Do you remember how to talk to peers when they don’t just exist inside your computer? Where do you look? What do you do with your hands? Many of us haven’t seen our coworkers in months - or met them in person yet!
In this 1.5-3 hour workshop, we’ll focus on building team connection and shared language about communication and how to adapt to in person changes, with rapidly changing policies and safety guidelines.
Introductory Workshops
Intro to Improv
IN-PERSON OR VIRTUAL
Our Signature Applied Improv Workshop. Great for teams looking to reconnect, integrate new members, build, and collaborate. During each 1.5-3 hour workshop, we dive into core improv concepts in an experiential and relatable way.
Workshop Focus:
What it takes to be present and open to your team
The skills to better listen, accept, and build with your scene partner/colleague
How to develop a more collaborative relationship with your partners
Intro to Storytelling
IN-PERSON OR VIRTUAL
Think like a storyteller! Whether you’re delivering a formal presentation, relaying tough messages to your team, or or influencing decisions up and down an organization, storytelling is a powerful tool that can be used to inspire and engage your audience. During this experiential workshop, your team will learn how to break down a story into beats, tailor your message to different audiences, and explore new ways to mine your brain for the details and specifics that bring stories to life and compel audiences.
In the extended version of this workshop, your team will have a chance to tell their stories and receive live feedback from their peers and a professional storytelling coach.
