Why Choose Highwire Improv for Your Team Kickoff?

We get people involved.

Our unique play – reflect – apply framework gets your team to play with new ideas, reflect on their strengths, and immediately apply newfound information skills to real-world challenges. Inspiration comes from participation, not from memorization!

Humor breaks down walls.

No more hotel conference room stiffness! Our workshops inject a dose of playfulness, shattering barriers and unlocking a level of collaboration that can only happen when teams come together with trust!

Look like a genius.

We know engineers aren’t salespeople and accounting isn’t rocket science (it’s harder). We tailor each session to your team’s goals, information, and most importantly, vibe. It’s going to feel like your company, just at its most awesome.

Have us in person or online.

Plus; we formed in the crucible of 2020 – we’re very well prepared to deliver fully virtual or hybrid events.

Improv can do that!

Annual meetings and all-hands are one of the few times your team comes together all with a positive mindset, ready to be inspired, and primed to connect their goals and work to the company vision.

Don’t drop the ball and drain that excitement through the floor with a boring lecture or a vaguely related, generic motivational speaker!  Harness the creativity in the room with games, brainstorming activities, and exercises that directly connect to what you and your team do each day!

I highly recommend Highwire Improv to any corporate group seeking to foster teamwork, collaboration, a client-centric mindset, and appreciating how funny and creative their colleagues are. The Highwire Team’s expertise, enthusiasm, and ability to create a positive environment make them an excellent choice for improv-based events. Invite Highwire Improv to facilitate your next event and give your team the gift of laughter, growth, and improved collaboration.

Highwire Improv delivered an interactive and well structured training program. Opportunities to engage & interact as a group while having fun is a great way to build communication skills and creativity skills. Our team had so much fun doing improv as we continue to use it in meetings and team building activities.

Thank you for an amazing training experience. You made taking a break out of our busy day a time we could not miss. Some of us were a little uncomfortable at first because we did not know much about Improv. But after the first session, everyone was very engaged and enjoyed learning in a playful environment. Our learned lessons were plentiful and very applicable to our work environment. We learned how to be more present, be more effective collaborator and explore ways to think on our feet. I would recommend this training to my friends and co-workers!

Highwire Applied Improv has something for everyone!

Communicate Information and Strategy

Tired of snooze-worthy presentations? Our approach ensures that your strategies and vital info land with impact, leaving your team buzzing with excitement.

Think Broadly and Boldly

Kick mediocrity to the curb! We’ll empower your team to break free from conventional thinking and embrace the possibility of innovation. Great ideas are often risky, strange-sounding, and rough around the edges. Do you think people are just going to run to their bosses with something that looks silly and might not work? Building a bubble where we can proudly share our most outlandish ideas is possible under the magical conditions of a well-designed team kickoff! Let us set the stage so you can sing with passion (if it’s a little off-key, we’ll fix it in post-production)!

Build Empathy and Understanding

All of us are going to be in one place at the same time? Even that business unit that does the thing I don’t quite understand? Even the folks from the merger? Take the opportunity to break down the walls that naturally form through individual and team routines. Talking about everything together (from our morning routines, to what we all think DSP stands for in the training material) uncovers the people behind the screen, and all of the assumptions that go into our work routines. Dissolve those communication barriers and get real with people!

Generate Camaraderie and Familiarity

Forge connections that last! Our workshops create an atmosphere where team members aren’t just colleagues, but teammates on a mission. Psychological safety isn’t something you can just ‘bring in’ – it has to be built by teams through their own repeated behavior. Practice sharing information with vulnerability, celebrating each others’ wins and failures, and listening to understand in a low-pressure environment without the baggage of things that will show up on the performance review!
