Help your team thrive in uncertain times

As a manager, people look to you for answers, especially when each day brings a new set of questions: What’s our plan for ___? How are you going to handle ___? When are you going to get to ___? For most of us, answering “I don’t know” to any of these causes more stress and fear than the questions themselves. But what if there’s a better way?

Enter: the improv mindset. A way of showing up as a manager that helps you move with confidence as you guide your team through uncertainty. A mindset to help you adapt, flex, and respond to change, even — especially — when you don’t have all the answers. A way to build trust and rapport with your team while modeling the kind of flexibility needed to thrive in today’s world.

In this 90-minute workshop, join professional coaches, improvisers, and managers Jordan Hirsch and Sarah Filman to playfully practice the concrete skills needed to manage from an improv mindset. You’ll learn how to build on people's ideas even when you don't agree with them, how to make someone feel heard in under 5 minutes, and how to say “I don’t know” with confidence and joy.

No prior improv experience is expected or needed. Just bring yourself!
