Throughout history, the biggest misconception about improv theater is that improvisers just wing it. And that couldn’t be any further from the truth. It is the preparation and the adoption of a CEO mindset that allows an improviser to think on their feet and make confident decisions.
The formal definition of improv is two or more people collaborating and environments of uncertainty with the common goal of creating a solution. Sound familiar?
The improv mindset will build confidence in individuals, and teams, so they can turn obstacles into opportunities and remain flexible inside of disruption.
Fear isn’t something to be afraid of; neither is failure. Both are incredible data streams that illuminate the path toward innovation, confidence, and true collaboration. The problem is that most of us remain in our comfort zones because we are afraid to take risks leaving us with loads of regret.
This interactive keynote is designed to help participants use the experimental ideas from the improv theatre and apply them to the unscripted stage of everyday life.
When you start thinking like a CEO, you will begin to transform the quality of your work and your life.
Participants will take away the following:
- Better collaboration with internal and external stakeholders
- Tools to feel more confident taking risks
- The ability to stay agile in the ever-changing world and work environment
- A CEO mindset that will elevate performance and get results
Judi’s work is always collaborative and interactive. This keynote builds off the big ideas in Judi’s best-selling book, Fear is My Homeboy®.
People think they need to manage their time better, yet in a world that constantly feels “crazy busy,” that can feel impossible. So, what if we stopped managing our time and started managing energy? Because if you had more energy, what would change? What could you get done? And would you start living your life differently?
This session will provide participants with the fundamentals of prioritization. You will learn how to leverage boundaries for outstanding results and debunk the myth that you must “do it all” while sacrificing your most important asset, YOU! Because the reality is this: Nothing else works unless YOU do!
“Crazy busy” is not sustainable, and when you burn the candle at both ends, you not only burn out but also risk destroying everything in your path, from relationships to your health.
After this session, your participants will be able to:
- Adopt a CEO mindset
- Set boundaries that stick
- Prioritize themselves in their schedules
- Get the results you want
- Take more confident action
