About the workshop: 

We are living in a world where attention spans are getting shorter and shorter. In addition, people are developing "Zoom Fatigue" as a result of the rise of video conferencing during the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a facilitator, it may seem like the odds are stacked up against you. However, all is not lost. Believe it or not, it is still possible to deliver a meaningful experience in a virtual environment. One that keeps your attendees engaged, sitting on the edge of their seat, and hanging on your every word. Want to know how? Then you need to sign up now!

In the Steal the Show workshop you will get the training and practice needed to become a highly polished virtual presenter. This 90 minute, highly interactive workshop is based on the science of improv thinking and purposeful play. You will participate in experiential activities designed to help you be more dynamic in front of the camera, communicate more clearly, and think on your feet. In addition, you will participate in playful games that you can implement right away to enhance any training. 

Learning Objectives 

In this session, participants will:

  • Learn activities designed to keep your audience engaged

  • Practice techniques to enhance your ability to facilitate  in a virtual environment

     Understand how to create an environment that accelerates connection and intimacy for your attendees

NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).

This is a 90-minute online workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 1:30pm EST.
