Description
David Suarez (aka David Christopher) from Interactive Training Solutions is an Improv veteran who is also a Facilitator and Coach specializing in Communication.
To give you some context: Back in 2018, I decided to challenge myself by improving my listening skills and lose the fear of public speaking. I've always been a fan of comedy, and most of the comedians an funny actors I admire all started in Improv. After graduating from Just the Funny Miami (David is a co-founder and teacher there as well), I realized how all the skills I learned all had a positive impact in my professional and personal life. I was able to improve my listening skills, become more present and be agile in the moment when interacting with folks.
David and I explore how the skills learned in Improv (concepts like "Yes, and", adapting in the moment, etc.) can easily be applied in the world of business and sales. David and I even do a live improv exercise and we learn a few things from it!
It was a pleasure and a privilege to have such a talented professional like David join me today. Of course, humor can also benefit building rapport and relieve tension. Timing and authenticity are important.
