THEY improv provides corporate training and Asia team building workshops using a variety of forms of comedy. Comedy is extremely useful in getting across information that is retained by those attending the event.
Comedy allows for people to bond and share emotional experiences. This bonds employees to a much greater degree and crosses cultural divides and across the borders of Asia.
Getting your clients to laugh allows them to relax and feel more comfortable with your team. After all, who doesn't appreciate a good laugh?
Getting people to laugh can help to make them feel comfortable to share even the most uncomfortable problems with our facilitators. This allows for better results.
Company gatherings can be quite dull at times. Inserting comedy into such events helps to keep people engaged and in the moment.
No one wants their special occasion to be boring. Bringing comedy into your event can quickly make the difference between the party you want to have and the party that you don't want to attend.
Speeches can be quite boring. Having a speaker who is comfortable enough to engage the audience and add humor can keep the attention of everyone and make a huge difference.
Often workshops are seen as dull events where the attendees are simply there to absorb knowledge. Someone drones on about something while the attendees stare at the clock and doodle on the pads provided by the hotel or convention center. This is not a formula for success in the US or Canada, nor will it work anywhere in Asia. This includes Japan, China, India, Malaysia, or anywhere else. Regardless of how reserved someone may be, there is a part of humor that resides in all of us. Making the event a more enjoyable experience maintains the attention of the attendees. Focus on the facilitator increases the absorption of knowledge. They are focused because it might cause them to laugh, which is enjoyable. Rewarded attention in a physically positive way is a great way to motivate people to listen.
Interviews with many workshop attendees after a lecture have proven that little knowledge is retained. When knowledge is not directly related to the day-to-day activities of the attendee or not utilized soon after the event, often the knowledge is lost. If retention of knowledge is important to the company, then practical methods must be used. Fun events increase knowledge retention and short-term recall. Often attendees talk to their friends about the event or try to repeat jokes. Through association between the jokes and the event, the knowledge is recalled and is kept fresh in the memory. These fond memories of an event are key to remembering, as opposed to an event that they want to forget.
Often workshops are viewed as a task to be performed. They are a requirement from the corporation and are seen as something that has to be done, as opposed to something that someone wants to do. Attentiveness during the event is already undermined by the nature of the event. When the workshop is seen as a positive experience and the attendees anticipate the event, they are more receptive to the messages being delivered. Attendees are more likely to provide feedback during the event, allowing for affirmative adjustments to be made in content, and to increase the interactive elements enhancing knowledge retention. By increasing the positive nature of the training, you also are increasing the positive results.
