Subject: How well do you improvise as a leader?

With all the ambiguity and uncertainty we experience in the workplace there's only so much planning we can do. The rest comes down to improvisation...


Hey Friend,


I recently interviewed the amazing Patti Stiles on the topic of improvisation, something she's an expert in, having worked in improv theatre since the 80's.


Through the conversation she shares loads of benefits that come from learning the skill of improvisation to improve leadership effectiveness. The biggest one for me was the appreciation improvisation gives to the limitless amount of ways we can respond to whatever is presented to us.


Given the ambiguous and uncertain environment we now call 'normal' we need to have the ability to respond to every situation...without losing pace.


This is a fabulously thought-provoking conversation that will get you considering how to adjust your approach to shift the outcome.

Stay awesome!
