Description

To help readers experience a whole new understanding of the importance of trust, The Improvisation Edge introduces the reader to the practice of radical collaboration based on the tenets of improvisation. The collaboration found in any highly successful improve troupe requires deep trust. In truly high-performing corporate teams, these same behaviours are evident.

Professionals feel valued, flexible, challenged and an integral part of a great team of people that they trust and admire. Readers who adopt an improviser's mindset perform better at work, are happier in their relationships, speed up their successful interactions, and eliminate waste.

The book provides leaders, managers, trainers, and even front-line employees a practical methodology for adopting the improviser's mindset. It leverages all of the elements that make improvisation so entertaining: story, surprise, connection, and interaction. It outlines how these principles work for improvisers by pulling readers into a performance and allowing them to experience the adrenaline and uncertainty of improvisation.
