Speakers: Neil Mullarkey and Ian Rodwell
We rarely consider the power of humour and laughter in the workplace. But the evidence shows that not only can it make us feel more connected but it can also supercharge performance and creativity. So who better than Neil Mullarkey, one of the world’s most experienced and accomplished improv performers and a veteran of ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway’ and two Austen Powers movies, to talk about why laughter can, indeed, be the best medicine. Drawing on Neil’s extensive work with business organisations and his book, ‘In the moment’, we discuss how improv can improve our ability to listen, notice and be curious – skills that lie at the heart of so many organisational activities such as leading, negotiating, coaching and collaborating. We also investigate why moments matter, the role of trust and how getting off the lift at the wrong floor can sometimes be a clever thing to do.
