"Using Improv to Improve

Communication and Build Teams"

...

with 

Candy Campbell, Ph.D.



LEARN HOW TO TEAR DOWN THE WALLS OF MISCOMUNICATION AND BUILD BRINGES FOR IMPROVED INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP SKILLS


Skill Stack to be Addressed

  • Applied Experiential Learning (AEL)
  • Active listening
  • Positive assertive communication
  • Problem solving

Effective communication and fully-functional teams are always strong contributors to the bottom line. However, in some “high-risk, high-consequence” professions, when communications break down, people can be seriously hurt or even killed.

 

Both fun and serious, this workshop features the proven adult education tool, including applied improvisation. In it, participants learn methods to collaborate, confront, and connect with others. The result is enriched communication skills and decreased number of performance errors.


Objectives

Through the practice of Applied Experiential Learning (AEL) participants will be able to:

  • Explain behavioral and neuroscience theories related to AEL
  • Demonstrate how to use AEL to boost communication and interpersonal relationship skills with clients and colleagues
  • Utilize at least three AEL principles to improve effective and assertive communication within the team and work environment
  • Articulate at least one method to spontaneously problem-solve and reduce the risk of not speaking up in stressful business situations

Outcomes

Dr. Campbell will escort you on a communication expedition that will empower you to handle even the most challenging situations better, putting you on a path to be able to:

  • Turn anxiety into confidence
  • Turn worry into assurance
  • Turn tension into cooperation
  • Turn problems into solutions
  • Turn stress into ease

About the Presenter:

Candy Campbell, Ph.D


Dr. Campbell’s experience includes more than 35 years as a nurse, educator, actor, director, author, and speech coach. Her doctorate specifically addressed inter-professional miscommunication and how to prevent it. That is precisely why Campbell is the ideal instructor for this much-needed course to bridge the gaps in communication among healthcare providers as well as between provider and client.

 

Campbell serves on boards of directors for a number of local and national organizations, is a member of the National Speaker’s Association, and the Screen Actors Guild. In the 1990s, Campbell co-founded the improvisational stand-up comedy troupe, The Barely Insane Players, and has taught improvisation techniques and public speaking to all ages and to a wide range of businesses and organizations, including private and corporate clients. She makes the process of acquiring useful knowledge so enjoyable that one may forget learning is taking place!
