Katie Goodman comic, actress, author, and speaker

Katie teaches how to use the tools of improv comedy to access creativity and innovation for the workplace. Katie's funny and fast-paced keynotes are smart, lively, and approachable. She will customize the content to focus on your company’s specific needs, focusing on:

? Improvise & Innovate Your Way Through Change
? Find Comfort In The Unknown: How To Handle ANYTHING
? How To Pivot And Stay Creative
? Women Killing It: Now Is Our Time
? Gag Your Inner Critic

Improv comedy requires quick thinking, collaboration, adaptability, trust, and the ability to live in the moment without being a perfectionist. These are skills we can all learn to use to be happier and more innovative and effective each day.

Improv is all about collaboration. Katie gives participants the chance to explore new ways of collaborating that will benefit them in deep and meaningful ways. She will put energy and fun back in your interactions and connections, leading to a healthier work environment.

Our Inner Critic keeps us from reaching our potential and living our best life. In a company, it keeps people from taking creative and innovative leaps, from supporting each other, and slows down progress. We can learn to transform our Inner Critic to a helpful Inner Coach that blazes the way for our personal growth and allows us to show up fully and reach our potential. 

Crucial for a business and for our personal lives. Katie will lead you through learning how to actually love the stages of being lost and the thrill of coming out the other side with new ideas and ready for action.

Allowing for Safe & Creative Risk-Taking: Improv games and exercises teach us how to become someone who is comfortable taking creative risks for our business, entrepreneurship, and personal lives. Nothing exciting or new happens in business without creative risks. 

Dreaming and scheming is a good thing but there are always constraints. Like any rules of improvisation, constraints actually help us be more creative. They offer boundaries and limit our choices, helping us avoid overwhelm. Katie will show you how to look at your budget as a useful tool to keep your creativity flowing.
