Improv your Business!: Jim Nemeth at TEDxEMU

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
Jim Nemeth demystifies the rules of improvisation (yes rules!) and confirms what Willie Wonka already knows: ""Improvisation is a parlor trick! Anyone can do It (badly)!". Jim guides us through a discussion on bringing Improv techniques to the role of the ""executive performer."" By following these rules (and with a little rehearsal) you will soon be hearing the applause you deserve on the "corporate stage" of business.
