About Applied Improv Silicon Valley
Applied Improv is a fun way of practicing both time-proven and cutting-edge skills that can change your personal and professional life, no matter who you are or what you do.
No experience needed, only a willingness to allow yourself a bold and honest encounter with the Now.
If a person is confused by this description, or if it sounds weird or unusual (but a little bit intriguing), and yet you are still willing to try new ideas and actions to expand your mindset, then you are a person we welcome.
There are no observers, auditors, or lookie-loos.
There are only participants.

Don't celebrate mistakes! You perpetuate the approval/dissaproval syndrome. Focus on focus. Complete or incomplete. Incompleted is not a mistake. It's a resistance.to the focus (for whatever reason). This is the trap most people get involved in. Success/Faliure thinking.
Think only of ways to solve the problem. Avoid words like success and failure. It will lead to a dead end.
End of sermon.

What games did you play? You might get some good ideas from AIN.
Key in doing this for business is a debreif that makes the participants understand the value as applied to their world.
Good luck.

Do the Improv SV folks know about this network? I was doing a 'social media' session at the conference and was showing how to search twitter for improv, when the SV group came up to our surprise. I saw your post on Gary's profile and so thought I'd ping you about it.
Cheers,
Leif
