PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Improv is not just for the stage. Organizations of all shapes and sizes partner with Crossroads to instill imperative business skills. Our customized applied improv workshops give you and your coworkers a chance to examine personal and group dynamics, focusing on practical skills like listening, sharing, leadership, being bold, conflict resolution, and working as a team.
After scheduling an improv workshop, our facilitators build a curriculum designed to address the skills that matter most to your team. Then we come to your office (or you come to us!) and teach you using the exercises that train the improvisers on our stage. Call us at 215-650-7360 or email us at hello@xroadscomedy.com and we’ll help you plan your next practical, engaging, fun, and maybe even funny business gathering.
