Improv training offers a fresh perspective on skills that can enhance our understanding of others’ learning and communication styles, and increase empathy and the awareness that shared goals and visions may be attained in different ways with shared language. It supports a positive group dynamic with expanded trust and adaptability, thereby enhancing productivity and enjoyment of the workplace.

Improv teaches us why truly listening changes everything, and why the way in which we say things means the difference between defensiveness and jumping onboard. It shows us how introverts and extroverts can understand and support each other, and how using games to demonstrate optimal communication provides us with enduring reference points.
-
Maximizing the self-esteem of individuals makes for a stronger team. What if teammates could get more comfortable with their discomfort and into a more open, receptive state? With the aid of improv we can actually learn to get out of our own way, use our mistakes to laugh and relax, strengthen our social constitution, and trust our individual value to the group.

Get curious about what makes a good leader for your team. Use improv to explore the quality of the impact you have, improve feedback loops, lift up others, and maintain flow.
what clients have to say
Laura helped us design a half-day course for our management team to learn and apply improv tools to foster an inclusive and collaborative workplace culture. It was one of the most effective and fun trainings we have ever done. Laura is a master at creating a safe place to explore the tools of improv, even for a group of geeky introverts!

My team had such a great afternoon working with Laura and ZipLine Improv… Not only did we have a great time and laugh our heads off, but we continue to bring up and share ideas and stories from the day months later. One of the coolest things to happen was the dynamic emerging of some of the quieter teammates when the louder teammates learned to listen carefully/read the room and step back. Some of the funniest moments were led by our most introverted teammates – really cool to watch!
