ImprovAndy’s team performance modules help individuals improve team performance at all levels within your organization.  Whether your team consists of two people or two hundred people, our modules can be customized to meet your company’s specific needs.

Our unique approach to improving team performance is based on our Collective Engineering™ Model, a proprietary approach that combines leadership skill training with a dynamic and interactive learning environment.

Ready, Set, Delegate

Delegation is more than a management technique for freeing up time. It is a valuable leadership skill that enables you to take on additional responsibilities and advance your career.  Companies that encourage employees to develop this skill can create a broader pool of internal candidates to promote into leadership positions.

ImprovAndy’s 4-Step Delegation Process™ helps individuals learn how to delegate effectively through a series of dynamic and interactive exercises.  The exercises allow individuals to practice these skills in the context of group dynamics, allowing them to gain practical experience in a realistic learning environment.  As the process unfolds, individuals learn how mastering delegation can add value to their career growth and reduce stress.

Communication Skills for Business Networking

Your next big client could be standing next to you in the elevator, at a little league game, or in a restaurant – but how would you know?  The fact is you wouldn’t - unless you engaged them in conversation. 

People do business with people they like, whose opinion they value and whose capabilities they trust.  Attending social and business networking events is the first step towards meeting people and developing successful relationships.  However, having leadership communication skills will help you create opportunities for growing your business and expanding your referral network.

ImprovAndy helps individuals master communication skills to initiate conversations, discover relevant connections and create valuable, long-term relationships at social and business networking events.

Benefits to Teams:

• Enhance cooperation among teams and elsewhere in the organization.
• Improve communication and listening skills among team members.
• Develop more productive working relationships.

Present Like a Professional

Have you ever noticed that some individuals who are relaxed and engaging in personal conversations appear tense and stressed when they give a presentation?  This is because these individuals are under the mistaken impression that there is a difference between having a conversation and making a presentation.

In today’s business environment, every conversation is a presentation and every presentation is a conversation.  However, having a firm grasp of your subject matter is only part of the equation. The words you speak make up only 7% of the information people receive.  The vast majority of information is communicated via the tone of your voice, body language and other forms of non-verbal communication.  Whether you are pitching a client or conveying quarterly results to your Board, the ability to present clear, concise information with confidence is an essential leadership skill.

ImprovAndy helps individuals present like a professional by combining proven techniques with practical experience and personal style.  Individuals learn how to connect with their audience, articulate a vision, impart knowledge and inspire others.  Further, presentations are recorded and individuals are provided with immediate, valuable and timely feedback.

Benefits to Teams

• Create professional, convincing presentations for clients, colleagues and managers.
• Communicate effectively using compelling conversation and body language.
