IMPROV Inc.

Sorry - IMPROV What?? IMPROV Inc! It’s an exciting new poised-for-launch start-up that holds the secret to work-life success.?

What does IMPROV Inc. do??We bring?applied improvisation into the corporate sector – and especially into the everyday life of the corporate employee.?

Applied?what, now?!?Applied improvisation.?Sure, ‘improv comedy’ is a style of comedy, but this is improvisation applied to real-life situations such as the workplace.

Erm, does that mean I have to be funny? Nope, not at all. It just brings out the best in everyone. Laughter happens as a side-product and in a good way.

Sounds like you’re making it up as you go along…?Ha! Good one! But no: quite the opposite. IMPROV Inc. train people for the unexpected and for excellence while, at the same time, they’ll consistently operate at the top of their intelligence. We raise self-awareness, increase emotional quotient and fire up intellectual agility. Our unique and powerful framework means people boost their personal performance and, inevitably, the performance of those around them.?

Sounds hard work. Why bother??Because when you raise your game, life gets easier. Think of it like this.... people who apply improv techniques in everyday work embody and exude more confidence; collaborate better with colleagues and clients; become more creative, witty and agile and, crucially, lose their fear of ideas being rejected or ridiculed.?We see our training programmes’ targets being met and exceeded every single day.

So what's involved??At its core, improvisation is immersive and experiential. Groups participate in exercises designed to allow situations to be worked out and worked on, all in a safe playful space. It’s more than role-play and it’s way, way more than ‘kidding around in a fun workshop’. Experiencing real situations and real emotions in a shared environment allows participants to understand, unpack, explore and master the unique difficulties of their work-life. Think meetings, workshops, client discussions and teamwork collaborations. Immersive exercises provide a shared experience proven to embed good habits much more effectively compared to classroom and theoretical styles of training.

This sounds unique…?It is unique. Improv training is an experience like no other kind of training. It’s immersive. It’s fool-proof. It’s fascinating. And, importantly, IMPROV Inc’s experts create a safe and playful space in which to do the work.?

Improvisation provides transformation in confidence levels during and after sessions. It creates an openness to step-up to support or lead others.?

Improvisation can energise a room from inertia to full engagement in the space of two minutes, then re-engage it into deep focus and connection after that. It provides a platform for emotional intelligence mastery that allows participants to be in control of difficult discussions and conversations in the workplace. Perhaps most importantly, improv techniques and strategies really do change and improve the way people live and appreciate their life at work and beyond.

So who is applied improvisation for??IMPROV Inc. leans towards the corporate sector and, in particular, early-career professionals, team leaders and project managers.

It is for those with an open mind who are willing to work on themselves to support their future success.

It is for those who are happy to accept that mistakes are inevitable on the path to growth.

Is it for everyone, then??Yes indeed. It’s useful for everyone. However, people who are disinclined to take on feedback or are too headstrong to change approach might struggle at first. It’s not for those who believe their methods are the best and only way. It’s definitely not for people who want a?jolly day out where they get to mess around! While sessions do create humour, the learnings and takeaways are serious in nature.

So, is it for me? Yes, Most definitely, Applied Improv is for you. IMPROV Inc is for you.
