The Power of Improv on Business and Creativity
Improv is an incredibly fun, cathartic way to improve the soft skills needed for leadership, team building, and creativity.
Did You Know?
That many business schools (including Duke University and Stanford University) have added improvisation to their curriculum?
That companies like Google, PepsiCo and MetLife have added improv classes for their employees' professional development?
Improv is a performance art focused on “living in the moment”: all scenes, dialogue, plots (sometimes even songs!) are made up entirely on the spot, live, completely unplanned. Lots of people know improv from shows like Whose Line Is It Anyway? but the truth is “funny” isn’t the primary goal. Focusing on skills like listening, communication, confidence, and thinking on your feet, your goal is to make your scene partners look good; their goal is to make you look good. Together, who knows where you'll go?
