Embrace New Ideas, Experiences, & People (1-4 hours Workshop Customizable)
“How can we collaborate & communicate to embrace & create change?”

Step into a world where new ideas are celebrated, new experiences are embraced, and adaptability is second nature. Picture a space where ideas flow effortlessly, even from the quietest members of your group. Imagine a group that values everyone’s input, adapts quickly to new information, and seeks out change. It’s a place of belonging.

Participants discover how to be more open to new information through continuous experimentation, be more accepting of others’ ideas, and develop a knack for adaptability. You’ll learn an iterative process derived from improv comedy that can be applied to any new challenge, experience, or project, making difficult decision-making not just achievable, but intuitive and natural.

“How can we feel good when we present, and give a compelling presentation that is memorable & effective?”

Presentations can be stressful. Designed by a full-time storyteller, pitch coach, & 3x entrepreneur, this interactive keynote presentation is designed to help attendees simplify their message through storytelling and help them feel more comfortable on stage when under pressure.

With the perfect mix of content, live coaching, and interactive exercises, attendees will learn how to ensure their audience is not only attentive, but deeply connected to the message as well.

Team Building: Collaborate, Support, & Grow (1-4 hours Workshop Customizable)
“Bonding groups faster than you’ve ever seen done before.”

In this 1-4 hour workshop, designed for new or existing groups, participants will deepen their connections, embrace collaboration, and explore the 4 key principles of improv comedy:

“Yes, and…”: Cultivate a positive, open-minded, “can-do” attitude while being present.
“Team Over Self”: Improv is a team sport. We emphasize teamwork & reciprocal support in a trust-filled environment.
“Communicate Confidently”: All non-scripted communication is improv. Practice deliberately.
“No Mistakes, Only Learning”: Embrace a growth mindset, take calculated risks, & overcome obstacles.

Listen Like An Improviser (1-4 hours Workshop Customizable)
“How can we improve listening to foster connection & mutual respect?”

We explore the importance of improv in everyday communication, as all non-scripted communication is improv. We focus on the 3 core steps to listen like an improviser: actively listening, pausing, and responding in the moment while embracing the “Yes, And…” principle.

Nathan helps participants embrace the principle of “Yes, And…” to foster open-minded conversations, suspend judgment, and unlock meaningful dialogue. Participants develop a shared language and understanding, while ideas flow effortlessly and all participants feel truly heard.

Breakthrough Facilitated Brainstorming (3-8 Hours Workshop Customizable)
“How can we generate wildly creative solutions to our most pressing challenges?”

Imagine a problem-solving process that not only generates an abundance of creative concepts but also expertly refines them into actionable strategies. This session blends the uninhibited spirit of improv with strategic thinking to help your team generate and refine truly innovative solutions.

Through the “Yes, And” technique, you’ll learn to build upon each other’s ideas without limitation, creating a cascade of creative possibilities. The “Yes, But” approach then allows for constructive analysis, helping to shape these raw concepts into viable strategies.

By the end of our session, your team will have a rich collection of innovative ideas for your next major initiative, methods to further develop and implement these ideas, and a flexible framework for ongoing creative problem-solving.
