How to use Improv to boost creativity at work with Jessie Shternshus

Guest

Jessie Shternshus: Founder and Owner of the Improv Effect.

Summary

In the Inclusion Meeting Card deck, the Angel's Advocate card is a role that is given to a person who uses it to encourage other ideas in the meeting. In the spirit of "Yes, And", we have Jessie Shternshus of The Improv Effect to talk to us about how to encourage brainstorming in your meetings and how to build a group that's comfortable together. Jessie also shares her worst meeting story, which involves a chair.
