How Improvisation Improves Creativity  & Collaboration

Leadership has never been easy, but today’s leaders face unprecedented challenges: technology shifts, globalization, once-in-a-generation changes in the workforce as baby boomers retire.

Today’s leaders need to be creative, nimble, and adaptive.

They need the skills of an improviser to thrive amidst the changes and unknowns that characterize the modern workplace.

Join Second City Works for a fun and instructive session where you’ll learn how you can develop the improviser’s toolkit to become a better leader.

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.
