Corporate Improv Workshop
Power of Yes! is a corporate workshop that teaches you the creative techniques of improv and how to apply them to improve your business, work and life.
Improv training is a proven skill-building resource with many positive applications.
In fact, a recent Forbes article reports that more Fortune 500 companies are using improv to inspire creativity, communication and productivity in their workforce.
Each Power of Yes workshop focuses on researched business principles, and can be customized to meet your organization's needs.
Power of Yes! will enhance your staff's ability to work as a team in an effective manner and confidently communicate with clients and each other.
The workshop is broken down into activities and
games that focus on the key elements of improv.
Participants start with simple exercises, working in
teams, and progress to games that unleash their
creativity and communication skills!
Power of Yes!
works for all sizes of groups. You can choose a Power of Yes! hands-on
workshop for as little as 10 employees, or as an interactive and
entertaining keynote address for 1,000, there's always a way to unleash the
Power of Yes!
Our experience working with Donovan and Graham was exceptionally positive. The
Power of Yes! concept is very fitting for a corporate audience and the messages are universal to almost any work environment.
Plus, the team's quality/professionalism was just what we needed to not only win over our Executive Team but also the members of the audience.
In these past 2 months since the workshop, we are already seeing changes in the way our team communicates internally and externally.
I would recommend this workshop for all teams, big or small!
I laughed until my stomach hurt! Along with the laughter came excellent tips on how to be
positive, work as a team and how to say Yes!
These guys are good!
The whole group had a lot of fun with Donovan and Graham and we still are using the principles they taught us. It was really informative and a lot of fun.
What more can you ask for in a workshop?!
Getting administrators and teacher leaders to say yes and look at their roles from a positive direction has been most helpful in moving our teachers forward in this time of change in education.
Graham Neil and Donovan Workun have never disappointed in their preparation and professionalism.
I'm happy to report you guys were definitely the crowd favourite. Some of the comments: very motivating; loved the class participation; best session; awesome; excellent; good principles.
Too much fun--wanted to stay all day.
We never dreamed what an impact Power of Yes could have on our company. The workshop made major breakthroughs, and created a culture-changing epiphany for us.
More than anything, they were fun and fully engaging of even the shyest of participants--no small feat considering that the attendees represented organizations from 5 continents, many different cultures, and for whom English was a second language of more than half the attendees.
This is powerful stuff!
We received a number of comments post event praising our MC's and that it was the best awards gala they had been to.
It was the first time we had used Graham and Donovan at a Hockey Alberta event and we can tell you it will not be the last!
