Working Without a Script

Program Information: Improve communication skills with improv! Second City has facilitated successful business training for over 45 years. Their training program, Working Without A Script, teaches how the basics of improvisation will help your organization communicate better, build stronger teams, and create a positive work environment. Just like an improv troupe, organizations need to know how to work together when the plan doesn’t go as planned. Hosted by Keegan-Michael Key, TV personality and Second City alum, along with a talented ensemble cast, Working Without A Script emphasizes that good communication starts with a “yes, and” philosophy. “Yes, and” means embracing and building upon new ideas. It fosters open-mindedness and empowers people to think on their feet and take risks. When an organization commits to the “yes, and” philosophy, good things will happen! Key communication concepts from the film Include: Use “Yes, and,” not “No, but” Actively Listen – Understand what is really being said Affirm Each Other’s Ideas – Even if you disagree Build on the Idea – Help it grow   Length: 14 Minutes Includes:  Leader's Guide, Workbook, Bonus Activities DVD, PowerPoint™ Presentation and a Transcript of the film   » View Sample Materials A Star Thrower Distribution Product Industry Discounts: Star Thrower offers a 10% discount to the following industries: Education, Nonprofit, Government, and Consultants.
