How can IMPROV help me on-the-job or in the job-search?
Improvisation or Improv, is not about learning how to become quick-witted….it’s about learning how to build something tangible out of nothing or out of turmoil.
Does this sound like what you’re trying to do, whether you’re searching for your next job or developing a solution for a project in your present position.
One of the most important skills an employer looks for is critical decision-making. The ability to make those key decisions in the course of the day that keeps the business process flowing effectively.
An Improv setting gives you opportunity after opportunity to do just that—make a quick decision and face the consequences over and over and over again.
Where else can you practice continual decision-making in a dynamic environment without judgement and without the consequences having any long-lasting effects (except for maybe an insight or two)?
IMPROV-ing leads to IMPROVing!
The results of practicing Improv can be both amazing and surprising. It helps to address those blind-spots we have that we are unaware of.
Other benefits:
– Think more quickly on your feet.
– Learn to listen more effectively
– Improve your communication style
– Inspire your inner creativity
