Why Your Organisation Needs an Improv Workshop
Improv? Really? Shouldn't we do an escape room? Or book a motivational speaker? You definitely COULD! OR you could get the training that delivers the most bang for your booking! Whether trying to connect a new team, encourage collaboration or improve communication skills, applied improv is an effective, engaging and entertaining business training tool with lasting impact.
When it comes to corporate training options, improv is the immersive and hands-on experience your team needs to not only learn by doing and have a great time, but continue to reap the rewards for years to come.
❓️IMPROV? REALLY?
Like a sporting or business team at the top of their game, improv teams work as a well-oiled machine with excellent communication skills and creative problem solving. Through game play, your team will actively practice the skills that make strong improvisers and great coworkers: listening, clear communication, focus, being present and open to ideas, team support, idea generation and integration, flexibility and teamwork.
👋🏻 INTERACTIVE & INTEGRATIVE
No lecture, no presentation, no handouts. People learn better through experience when actively involved and up on their feet (even online). The immersive improv approach allows for holistic body and mind integration resulting in a deeply embedded learning experience in as little as a few hours.
🤝 TRUST & CAMARADERIE
Move the chairs aside, we get people moving, learning and laughing together. By interacting physically and playing together: messing up, sharing together and learning from each other in real time, we develop a trust and kinship that can’t be taught by watching a TED talk. Setting inhibitions aside and engaging in playful teamwork ensures close bonds, trust and empathy with benefits that last.
🖋️ PRECISELY WHAT YOU NEED
Unlike conventional corporate training which focuses on a one-size-fits all approach, applied improv is inherently flexible, and moves to fit the needs of your team, whatever they may be. BIG has an improv exercise to precisely strengthen every weak spot, and our trainers change to accommodate your group, and the individuals it comprises, in the moment.
🟢 IMMEDIATE APPLICATION
Whether it’s a multi-day course or a two-hour session, participants leave our sessions with a sense of accomplishment and optimism and with new tools they can use to enhance their work environment. Teams talk about what they learned and saw in one another, and how the techniques can be applied to their existing systems to continue the work once the session is over.
