International Institute of Business Analysts (IIBA) Australia Chapter, Adelaide Branch event to be held 26th August 2015 in the Board room at the Science Exchange:
Improving Communication and Collaboration through Improvisation
To accomplish anything you need the help of others and others need your help. Successful teams have members that are continually improving how they interact and communicate with each other. Collaboration, creativity, and results grow out of an environment that is positive and affirming.
In this highly interactive and fun session, Kupe, an improvisational actor, focuses on key improvisation lessons that will help you be a more attentive and flexible team member. You will walk away with lessons to help you stay in the present, temporarily suspend judgment, keep conversations moving forward and listen generously. These skills are needed to build positive, trust based, results oriented teams. With Kupe’s background he will be able to help you directly apply these skills to your job.
