What would it be like to see challenges as opportunities rather than endings?  To navigate bumps in the road with equanimity and team unity rather than unproductive shame or blame? The resiliency necessary to weather mistakes, overcome setbacks, and maintain team cohesion through thick and thin are tricky but essential skills in the workplace. Resilience is associated with greater job satisfaction, work happiness, and employee engagement. The Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health recommends building resilience by reframing challenges and boosting social connections, positive thinking, and laughter. Professional improviser Pam Victor brings all those tools to this fun, highly supportive training event that uses improv tenets, entertaining lessons, and easy-to-learn exercises to boost meaningful connections, foster team spirit, decrease stress, and build resilience.

“Resilience is based on compassion for ourselves as well as compassion for others.”

― Sharon Salzberg
Skills covered include:
  • Learning practical techniques for quieting the inner critic, reducing imposter syndrome, and reframing challenges to increase resilience

An improviser's guide to
mindfulness at work

Picture

Training event & Keynote

contact us to
bring this interactive event
​to your TEAM
Note: No previous experience with meditation, mindfulness, or improv comedy expected. Improv exercises take place in a whole group circle or pairs; participants are not put “on stage” or required to perform. This event is developed for everyone on the introvert-extrovert spectrum. Activities can be adapted to practice according to one’s physical needs and preferences.

"Research at companies like Google, Aetna and Intel have shown that increasing mindfulness in the workplace can decrease stress levels while improving focus, thoughtfulness, decision-making abilities and overall well-being. Mindfulness gives employees permission and space to think — to be present — leading to mental agility, resilience and self-awareness. In addition, mindfulness can reduce emotional exhaustion, increase openness to new ideas and develop compassion and empathy." 
- Forbes Magazine

Happier Valley Comedy president and founder Pam Victor  says, “Yes, AND…" let’s practice mindfulness with play and laughter while in connection together (rather than alone in our heads)! Pam joyfully guides your work team in communal and private contemplation, practice, and play as we experience mindfulness through easy improv exercises, accessible guided meditation, and connection-rich discussions. Incorporating improv into mindfulness brings fun, full-bodied, and shared practice to key concepts such as acceptance, letting go, presence, authenticity, play, curiosity, equanimity and ease, joy, compassion, and more. (Your event is customized based on your selection of the top 1-3 concepts that resonate most with your team.)

Mindfulness, play, and connection are braided together in mind, body, and spirit with this uniquely fun, profound, and beneficial event!
Training Session Includes:
  • Opening breathing and gratitude exercises
  • Improv exercises as playful practice of key mindfulness concepts
  • 10-15 minute guided meditation appropriate for all experience levels (even/especially those with no previous meditation experience)
  • Facilitated group discussions to personalize practice
  • Learning 'micro-habits' to continue practicing mindfulness in just minutes each day, both independently and as a work team
  • Closing with a whole-group lovingkindness-inspired exercise and “5 Good Breaths”

An improviser's guide to
service leadership

 Leading like an improviser means prioritizing being of service to the team and the moment. In this engaging, entertaining event, Happier Valley Comedy president and founder Pam Victor shares immediately-applicable improv tools to guide the team with service-mindedness, a hallmark of brave and compassionate leadership. More often than not, service leadership requires continual practice letting go of fear of the unknown, fear of losing control, and fear of failure. As Brené Brown says, “The real obstacle to brave leadership is how people respond to their fears.“

 In her decades of improvising, Pam Victor has come to equate improv training with fear management training. This interactive event provides leaders with an improviser's guide to disempower fears and reframe unproductive judgmental thinking in order to build more collaborative energy, confident decision-making, smart risk-taking, and the courageous vulnerability necessary for service leadership. Unless you have a script for the future, you're already an improviser. This event shares the training necessary to lead like an improviser with more authenticity, adaptability, and empathy.
Note:  This is not an improv workshop or show; it's an opportunity to learn an improviser's approach to workplace skills-building using simple improv-enriched (not scary) exercises designed to  put the learning into laughter-filled practice. All exercises take place in a circle, small group, or pairs; participants are never “on stage.” Pam Victor specializes in making sure all people along the introvert-extrovert spectrum feel comfy, successful, and have fun learning how to use improv to improve the workplace.
