Improv – Not Just For Comedy Anymore

March 18, 2011 by Toby Martini Leave a Comment

Watched Kat Koppett at TEDxAlbany today.

It was very weird because she used so many of my own words, put together in the same ways. I swear she stole my notes. (Not really!) More like, great minds think alike.

Either way, you can watch this video to get an idea of this whole Improv for Business thing. My spin is slightly different in that I’m funnier πŸ™‚ and I lean more into how You can use these skills in your life every day.

Testimonials

In today's business environment, teams do most of the essential work. Making these teams agile and innovative is the secret to success. Every member of the team must bring all their faculties to the table. But often fear of mistakes, fear of looking silly, fear of reproach stops members from contributing fully.

In the "Improving Communication" class, Mr. Martini's takes a team and in a safe, friendly environment, allows them to see that fear is an illusion. The class employs several improv exercises that help participants to immediately see that there is nothing to fear in collaboration.

Thinking fast on your feet is a skill that takes practice, The exercises that Mr. Martini employs empower the participants to grow their skills and feel more confident at work.

Mr. Martini's style and manner set the audience at ease and allow them to have fun while learning.
I recommend his class to anyone who needs to empower their team to work together more efficiently.

Thanks,
