Galen’s high impact business skills workshops will show participants how to use the principles of improv to be stronger communicators, think quickly on their feet, increase confidence and develop better relationship building and interpersonal skills. Students will become more adept at networking, public speaking and one-on-one business interactions. The BizProv workshops use a very specific curriculum focusing on active listening, connecting, being present, saying yes, making others look good, embracing failure and staying positive.
