Challenge: This Used To Be Fun. Remember Fun?

The average person will spend 90,000 hours at work. And sometimes you wonder how you can spend another day there. Work can just feel like… work. And when it’s hard or boring or isolating the days can seem slow and the productivity low. How can you boost engagement and productivity without reducing the workload? Or maybe your team has been working hard and buckling down and it’s time for a reward. Or maybe everyone needs to get excited and energized for the next project or quarter. Either way, we need to inject some joy in to this job-ASAP.

Using improve techniques to improve work skills.

The Solution: An Improv Skills for Work and Life Session

We are experts in fun. We teach people how to be more fun to work with. We explore how you can have fun even when you are doing work you didn’t choose, or things keep changing, or you are learning as you go, or you’re not surrounded by the funnest crew in town. By using our EPIC method, we teach how to make any activity you are doing more fun for you, more fun for the people you are working with, and more fun for anyone who might be watching. And if we can have fun while we are on the spot and out of our comfort zone, we can certainly find that fun when we are more comfortable at work.
