The basic description of an improvisational scene is: a group of individuals listening to their customers and instantly creating an interesting, engaging product, while in the spotlight. Improvisers are able to collaborate and innovate so rapidly because they abide by certain behaviors and cultural norms. In this session BNW facilitators share some of the key behaviors, demonstrate them in action through live improv demonstrations and allow participants to practice them first hand. Our facilitators create a safe environment of active participation, fun on-your-feet learning, laughter and discussion. The goal of the session is to facilitate the connection between the behaviors participants practice and how those behaviors can increase their productivity at work to help them be better collaborators and communicators.
The session format is modular and can typically accommodate varying sizes of groups (10-150) and can last from 90 minutes to 3 hours.
