Leading Culture draws on the principles of improv comedy to shape team dynamics with purpose, play, and presence. This course invites leaders to step into the role of culture-shaper by learning how to listen like a scene partner, build psychological safety through spontaneity, and create environments where people take bold risks and back each other up. Through neuroscience and psychology research on play and interpersonal dynamics, see why improv does not only apply lessons for the stage, but for work and life.
Through interactive exercises, group coaching, and real-time experimentation, participants explore how culture is co-created every day—and how great leaders make an environment where teams and individuals thrive.
