- Avish’s interactive programs are based on two simple premises: 1) the ability to improvise is a critical, but often lacking, skill for business and personal success. 2) Anyone - yes, anyone - can improvise! The world is changing faster than ever, and no matter how well you plan, things will go wrong, surprises will arise, and the Universe will throw you a curveball. Your success and sanity are directly related to how you respond these challenges. By the end of one of Avish's presentations you will have key tools to flow with all that life throws at you.
Avish Parashar is an energetic and humorous speaker who uses his 20+ years of experience performing, teaching and studying improv comedy to show organizations and individuals how to improvise, adapt, and innovate in an ever changing world.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Avish is amazing! His perspective of using improv thinking to embrace ding moments and change is more relevant than ever. A Yes, AND! mentality is critical to success in any business or relationship. Avish is a fantastic keynote speaker who always deliver immense value!!
What a brilliant, fun, and exciting speech! We need to embrace change and learn to laugh at all the curve balls thrown our way! Great advice - use "Yes, and...". He nailed it!
Great stuff Rita!
Agree 100% and thank you for sharing. The two companies i run use professional improv, role play and acting techniques to teach life skills (growth mindset, SEL and EQ) as well as personal and business skills.
YES, AND...
A GO FOR " IMPROV FOR LIFE "
Excellent Talk! It totally helps me to get to know what improv is and how it can change one's mindset or maybe life essentially. Great speaker and very inspiring! Thank you!
Excellent speech on an excellent perspective. When you approach change as an opportunity, great things can happen.
This is excellent! Love the idea, love the implementation!
Super video thanks
I'm in agreement with the premise that the world needs improv. What bothers me, and it's a common misconception, is that the word COMEDY follows improv. Sure some improv results in a funny sketch, but it can also result in a delicious dinner, a thoughtful testimonial at a funeral, and a hand made greeting card. We are all improvising our lives, but it's not always a comedy. Detach those two words and there is much wisdom.
Patricia I agree 100% . My two companies use improv for life skills, personal and business success!
